One mayoral candidate slammed the report, calling it clickbait. But do voters care that candidates running for office in their city don't actually live in Houston? An expert thinks it does.
According to our partners at the Houston Chronicle, seven of the candidates running for Houston mayor or councilmember positions have a questionable address.With the November elections right around the corner, Houston-area candidates are under the microscope more than ever., there's a question over whether at least seven Houston City Hall candidates actually live in the Bayou City, but it may be more of a gray area than you think.
Mayoral candidates Robin Williams, MJ Khan, and Robert Ivy, along with council candidates Conchita Reyes, Willie Ray Davis, Donnell Cooper, and city controller candidate Shannan Nobles, were all listed in the article. "You really just need a physical location. An address in Houston where you can say that is your home, and then you can register to vote with that as your address. If you do that, it doesn't really matter if you actually physically live at that residence or not. If you say you intend to live there and in your mind that's your residence, then the courts have said, 'that's enough,'" Jones said.
