Verdict: misleading

“Voters without a permanent address” can legally use certain buildings as their address to vote in Maricopa County.

Fact check:

Former President Donald Trump has been declared the winner of the 2024 presidential election, marking the end of a political comeback, according to The associated press. On Election Day, voters documented any possible instances of irregularities and shared them on social media, including in Arizona.

A job shared on X claims that more than 60 people registered to vote using an address that was not their home. The post appears to imply that these people illegally used government buildings as their addresses.

However, this is false. Maricopa County allows what they call “voters without a permanent address” to use municipal buildings as their address to legally vote. These buildings may include homeless shelters, halfway houses, and courthouses.
