The Houghton Mifflin online dictionary gives these definitions: (1) resident NOUN: One who resides in a particular place permanently or for an extended period. (2) reside INTRANSITIVE VERB: To live in a place permanently or for an extended period. Obviously Senator Mitchell doesn't comply with the constitutional requirement for residency even though he may claim that his legal residence (his domicile) is in Luverne in a house he doesn't live in.

Senator Wendell Mitchell lives in a mansion in Montgomery. He clams to have a domicile in his home district. Domicile (law) is a term that designates the law of a person for purposes of determining certain legal questions such as the ability to invoke the jurisdiction of a Court, or the interpretation of a will. A person may have many places of residence, but may only have one domicile. Don:

That’s Senator Wendell Mitchell’s address. I guess he could always run out of his P.O. Box in Luverne, anyway, like he has for his seat in the state senate.
