Charlie White, Indiana Secretary of State, is in the news again.
Secretary of State White files complaint against Bayhs
update 11/10/2011 seeks dismissal on technicality
He has referred a voter fraud case against Mr and Mrs Birch "Evan" Bayh, for voting in the Indiana primary when they live in DC.
The prosecutor is a democrat.
This seems like it could be selective not-yet-prosecution, for political purposes related to White's own pending voter fraud charges.
Bayh's residency has been at issue before. In State Election Board v Bayh
his residency was challenged regarding whether he could serve as governor. He won that case, which established that residency and domicile are pretty much the same thing as a matter of Indiana election law.
White's tactic had been urged in the local blogosphere:

In the end I do not expect either White or the Bayhs to be convicted of anything.
