I know it must be a chore to have to decide where you actually "live" when you have so many houses, but MA residency bothers me since his nearest abode is actually in New Hampshire, isn't it?
Why remain registered to vote in a state where you have to claim a son's unfinished basement as your "residence", when you have chosen, in a real estate fashion, to create a real home in a neighboring state?
Does anyone know if they have ever voted in Calif?
Republicans LOVE to be creative when it comes to legal residences, as evidenced by the gyrations we all watched when Cheney picked himself to be veep.
Elizabeth Dole chose to use her Mother's address.
Ricky Santorum made PA pay for schooling of his kids when he actually lived in VA, but used the address of some ridiculous rental place he held onto in PA.
Ann Coulter actually got caught voting in the wrong district, and got a slap on the wrist
I take this personally because our house rep Mary Bonehead Bono is married to a guy from Florida and has LIVED in DC for a very long time now yet continues to claim to be a Californian because she still has Sonny's vacation home in Palm Springs.
People go to jail when they register their kids in the "wrong" school district, but IOKIYAAR to run for the senate, house, or presidency and to vote anywhere you want, as long as you are rich enough to have extra houses or to hang onto inherited houses from dead relatives.
These same republicans want to put up flaming hoops at polling stations for everyone else to jump through before they get to vote, but when it comes to solving the mystery of the ages.. where they all actually live, we are to take their word for it, and suspend disbelief, always giving them the benefit of doubt.

I'm curious as to where his cadillac's are registered and inspected though. I thought you had to declare your legal residence where your voting residence was.
Do they both have Massachusetts Drivers licenses as well?
