Legislative candidate Sue Ek signed an affidavit July 9 saying she lived in St. Paul, 12 days after the deadline to establish residency in St. Cloud for a Dec. 27 special election.

Minnesota law requires legislative candidates to establish residency in the district they hope to represent at least six months before the election. For this election, the deadline was June 27.

(In order to be a candidate she also had to sign an affidavit saying she was a resident as of June 27. She did so, apparently forgetting she had signed the July 9 affidavit.)

a lawsuit has been filed challenging this. (Breaking news!)
