Arizona voters registered to vote using strip clubs, abortion clinics as home addresses: report

Hundreds of Arizona voters have commercial addresses from strip clubs to roller rinks as their primary residence on their voter registration forms, Breitbart reported Tuesday. The Public Interest Legal Foundation (PILF) discovered business addresses for an abortion clinic, a strip club, a high school, and the Arizona Cardinals Training Facility being used.

PILF has released a video showing where some of these businesses are located and the registered voters are not. J. Christian Adams, the president of PILF, told Breitbart News that the state’s voter registration form makes it clear that a business address cannot be used as a primary residence. “Election officials should do what PILF did — they should take the voter roll, see how many people are registered at commercial businesses, and do something more than nothing,” Adams said.

Arizona voters were quite imaginative about their use of business addresses, claiming to live at an abortion clinic, gas stations, liquor stores, vacant lots, schools, a smoke shop, a bank, fast-food chains, a strip club, golf courses, roller rinks, bars, and even the Arizona Cardinals Training Facility.

Adams told Breitbart that Arizona Secretary of State Adrian Fontes should take steps to correct the problem prior to November’s presidential election or PILF will initiate legal action to rectify the error. “This is a pervasive problem throughout the state … let’s hope Arizona does something without having to be sued,” Adams said.

An even more grievous voting issue arose when the Arizona Supreme Court ruled that 100,000 people with unconfirmed citizenship were allowed to vote in November.

Breitbart noted that it has also revealed voter registration problems like this in in Clark County, Nevada, finding that voters were registered to vote at strip clubs, casinos, Harry Reid International Airport, smoke shops, gas stations, and other commercial enterprises.

PILF asked Clark County Registrar Lorena Portillo to correct the problems in June and when Portillo balked, PILF filed a lawsuit. She quickly decided to get serious about removing people without a valid address.
