There is a controversy in Pennsylvania about whether Dr. Mehmet Oz can run for the Senate seat that Pat Toomey is vacating. The issue is whether Oz is really a resident of Pennsylvania.
I was interviewed about this by Sam Dunklau of WITF, the NPR affiliate in Harrisburg. I said that residency is easy to establish and that we normally take people’s word for it: “Dr. Oz says he’s not in Kansas anymore, and he can say that.”
How often do you get a chance like that?
