Donald Trump and his press secretary, Kayleigh McEnany, have been pushing the narrative that mail-in voting leads to voter fraud and it should be illegal.
We all know that Trump and McEnany are hypocrites for making this claim as they have both voted by mail in the past. But here’s the irony of it all: According to The Huffington Post, Trump and McEnany may be guilty of committing voter fraud by using residences that they do not live in to vote in Florida.
“Kayleigh McEnany was living in Washington, but voted in Florida. Trump used an address he promised Palm Beach officials would not be a residence,” HuffPost reports.
According to the report, McEnany used her parents’ waterfront address in Tampa as her legal residence rather than the house she and her husband bought in 2017, located a mile and a half away.
“If Florida is not really your primary residence, than it’s inappropriate for you to be registered as a voter in Florida,” said Ciara Torres-Spelliscy, a fellow at the Brennan Center and a professor at Stetson University in Florida.
According to the report, McEnany voted in both the 2018 primary and general elections in Florida using her parents’ address while living in Washington D.C.
At the time, McEnany’s driver’s license and car registration showed an address in Edgewater, New Jersey. Those documents can only be obtained by proving residency in that state, according to the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission website.
On the other hand, Trump also appeared to be using an address that he had promised he would never live in.
According to the HuffPost, “Trump cast a Florida ballot this year using a business address in Palm Beach, where he had promised the town government he would not live.”
