Emanuel tax paperwork complicates residency case

The Chicago Tribune reports:
The hundreds of pages of records Rahm Emanuel's attorneys filed ahead of Monday's hearing on his bid to stay on the Chicago mayoral ballot complicate questions about the former White House chief of staff's residency.

Emanuel amended his most recent tax returns late last month as those opposed to his candidacy talked about the arguments they would make in trying to knock him off.

In his original 2009 Illinois tax return, Emanuel checked the box "part-year resident" and noted he lived in Chicago through June 30, 2009.
