A new report found that MarkMeadows may have registered to vote at an address he never lived at.
He filled out his details on September 19, 2020, according to the voter registration form seen by The New Yorker. He listed a mobile home in North Carolina as the place where he lives.
The New Yorker spoke with the former owner of the home, who said that the wife of the man who owned the home had rented it for around two months in the last few years.
The former owner of the house said that the property had been rented to the woman who filled out the voter registration form. The home was never owned by the family. The New Yorker reported that it was sold in August of 2021.
It was weird that the former North Carolina congressman would stay at such a place.
It was not the kind of place you would think the chief of staff of the president would be staying.
According to The New Yorker, Meadows sold his home in 2020. He had an apartment in Virginia but didn't purchase a property in North Carolina after selling the Sapphire property.
If he never lived at the Scaly Mountain location, he could be in violation of the state's abode test for voter registration, which requires people to have spent at least one night in the location they are registered to vote without the immediate intent to establish a residence in another location.
Insider asked for comment from Meadows, but he did not respond immediately.
The January 6 committee investigating the Capitol riot heldMeadows in contempt for refusing to answer its questions at a deposition or turn over documents. He could face a year in prison if found guilty of contempt.
After giving up over 9000 pages of records, including thousands of texts, the House panel asked for more documents from the congressman, but he refused to give them.
