The warehouse where Houston anti-gay activist Dave Wilson claims to live has no shower, no refrigerator and no TV.
Harris County Attorney Vince Ryan is suing Wilson, alleging he doesnt really live in the district he was elected to represent in November on the Houston Community College Board of Trustees. Wilson, who led the push to ban domestic partner benefits in Houston in 2001, tricked voters into thinking he was black to get elected to the HCC seat. He also claimed he lived in a large warehouse in District II, instead of at the address listed by his wife outside the district.
The Houston Chronicles Lisa Falkenberg reports today that the citys code enforcement department inspected the warehouse this week and found that it doesnt meet code requirements as a residence.
Ryans office also provided the Chronicle with photos showing the inside of the warehouse doesnt look like its being used as a residence, either. But that didnt stop Wilsons two adult children from switching their official residences to the warehouse so they could vote for their father. From Falkenberg:
What is this all about? Theyre just looking for stuff everywhere. Nitpicking everything, he told me. You know, I dont have a four-slice toaster, either. Ive only got a two-slice toaster. Good grief.
