Huffpost: Trump and his Press Sec might have committed voter fraud

This is kinda dumb. If you vote in one place and not multiple who cares?
I voted in Florida when I lived in New York because I've constantly moved and my parents house was my only "permanent address"
And your state citizenship in based on where you INTEND to make your permanent residence (as long as you have lived there), not where you're currently residing, this is well established at least in federal legal proceedings. Its only when I moved to California and intended to make it my current residence that I left my florida citizenship

um, people that actually live in the state and have to be represented by people elected by outsiders?
a vote in NY is not the same as a vote in FL. Even for a national election like President, thanks to the electoral college
and the intent you mention requires actually having a residence there not a vague desire to live there, even with ties
Trump and his press sec. Have lived in florida and have declared their intent to return there. They're citizens of florida because that's where their domiciled. Their current residence doesn't change that. This is a concept that federal courts use in diversity jurisdiction cases.

Voting in Florida is clearly an act which shows they intent to return.
Trump lives in Florida. McEnany does not. Having once lived there is not the requirement. (Also, this is not even relevant to the part of my reply you quoted which was in response to your claim that "This is kinda dumb. If you vote in one place and not multiple who cares?")
Trump is the latter. He is using Mar-a-lago even though he is not allowed to live there due to zoning restrictions. McEnany is using her parent's residence and has demonstrated no intent to live there. She has no property there, no bills, no drivers license, etc.
Voting is an intent. How do you know she doesn't want to return. She's not voting where she's living. Instead she's voting in Florida. That shows an intent she considers it her home.
I'm glad you can read her mind.
This is very dumb "gotcha journalism"
She does not have a residence there to return to, or intend to return to
It doesn't require mind reading, it only requires reading the rest of the paragraph which demonstrates how one can establish intent -- all of which require actually having a residence or being present in the state. The intent is only the distinction between your primary residence and some other residence.
She had the address changed, and she literally has a home in Florida. This is clear intent.
and this is very dumb by the huffpost
Residency /= citizenship and domicile
anything Republicans spout as conspiracy, assume they are projecting. Always assume they are projecting.
David Plouffe @davidplouffeWhen your Uncle Rudy and Aunt Nikki post bullshit about vote by mail, remind them the only 3 known cases of voter fraud in FL were committed by Donald Trump, Kayleigh McEnany and Derek Chauvin.
