## Resource

Alabama’s lieutenant governor race is heating up after candidate Nehemiah Wahl’s residency comes under fire. He registered to vote in Tennessee in 2020, swearing under oath he lived there — a move that now threatens his eligibility for a statewide Alabama office. Though allowed to run after a Republican primary challenge, new evidence has reignited controversy. Wahl offers conflicting explanations — claiming he never fully moved or maintained dual residences — but the legal weight of his Tennessee voter registration looms large. A lawsuit is now challenging his qualifications, and courts will soon decide if this residency misstep could derail his campaign.
