while he claims West Virginia residency. So she cannot vote for him in this election but I believe he can vote for himself.
Based on what you know about Florida's homestead law, how might they be exploiting this arrangement?
Edit:
Raese says he is a full time West Virginian and that his daughter has a disability – one he wouldn't discuss -- that forced the family to seek help outside of West Virginia. Liz Raese, John's wife, said their daughter attends a special “Christian-based school because otherwise they'd want to give her Ritalin and other kinds of drugs.” That school is in Palm Beach where Liz and the couple's two daughters spend most of their time. They spend time enough there for Liz Raese to be granted a homestead exemption, available only to permanent residents, on their Florida property taxes. Though, Liz Raese is quick to note that she, like her husband, still votes in West Virginia. The family has a home in Morgantown, which John Raese says is his primary residence – he said he'd release tax information this week proving it -- and Raese can trace his family roots in the state back generations.

So I guess Raese's wife can vote in West Virginia after all, if the above information is true. It seems to me that a permanent resident of Florida shouldn't be able to vote in West Virginia but justice and the law are often inconsistent.
