Where does Joe live?
We've been wondering here in Connecticut. Since he sold his house in New Haven a couple of months ago, I have not seen him and haven't heard where he has landed. He said when he put his New Haven house on the market that he and Hadassah were "downsizing." But nobody seems to know where he downsized to. I asked at Lamont HQ when I went there today but they were wondering the same thing.

Don't you have to be domiciled in the district/state you live in to run for Congress?

Anybody know where he really lives (apart from Washington, D.C.)?

1. That is very weird that you don't know where he lives!
:rofl:

You're not even sure that he's still in CT?!

3. Yes, I find that bizarre!
He used to live in my neighborhood, not close, about 4 blocks away. But I did see him and Hadassah walking to shull on Saturdays and I did see him out running.

I truly think he is in D.C. most of the time, if not all of the time, now. I didn't expect a press release on his new address but I thought we'd find out, especially since he needs to live within walking distance of his shull on sabbath. I do know he has an Orthodox synagogue in the D.C. area, so maybe he is living there.

My question, tho, is whether he needs to have a domicile in his home state to run for office!!!

11. Interesting question
I could only find the address for the place he owns in New Jersey

Joseph Lieberman, residence on Parsonage Hill Rd., Short Hills, New Jersey

which must be his address for when he is in Congress.

Windsor Locks...:rofl: He bought a little ranch house and a dog...

4. The thing is, he has to live within walking distance of a shull
and there aren't that many of those spots in CT. That is, unless he has given up is Orthodox stance.

Strange, huh?

6. But who knows? I don't know any of my neighbors
who told me they were fellow congregants of Joe at his Westville (New Haven) synagogue when I went looking for their signatures on Ned's petition to be allowed on the ballot.

So close and yet so far, huh.....?

7. So--did you ask them if they knew where he went?
Joe is indeed the enigma these days. Nobody knows whether he will still choose to be a Dem, and now--nobody even knows where he lives! :wow:

Where's Joe?

10. I'm sure there's a CT address on his voter registration
The Lamont campaign will have the voter rolls, so they could easily check.

12. It's probably his old Alston St. address in New Haven
I'm going over to Ned's NH office this evening and I'll check.

14. well if so, and he sold the place, he can't vote in the election
Edited on Fri Jun-16-06 07:56 AM by orangepeel68
at least he couldn't in Florida. I assume it's the case in CT that you have to vote in the precinct in which you reside.

I'm sure that Joe is smart enough to have rented a hotel room, at the least, and changed his voter registration to that. But if not, it would make a fun story, wouldn't it?

Of course, that assumes the voter rolls obtained by the campaign are up to date.

13. I believe she passed away some months ago
I doubt if Joe would go there, but I could be wrong. Stamford has a strong Jewish community.
