A post being shared on X claims that over 60 people registered to vote using an address that was not their home. The post seems to imply that these people used government buildings as an address illegally.
This is false, however. Maricopa County allows for what they call “voters without a permanent home” to use municipal buildings as an address to be able to legally vote. These buildings can include homeless shelters, halfway houses and courthouses.
