Over the past 15 days, I have written several blog posts questioning the residency of Hialeah councilwoman Katharine Cue.
I reported how her driver’s license and city documents, including forms she filled out with her own handwriting, showed she actually resided at 19195 Mystic Pointe Dr. in Aventura when she was appointed to the city council last November 18.
The city charter requires a person to live in the city for one year prior to their appointment or election. All an appointee or candidate has to do to prove residency is show the city clerk a voter registration card.
But what if the information on the registration card is not true? Well then, that would be voter fraud, dear readers.

In the case of the 22-year-old councilwoman, her card has listed Hialeah as her home base since she first voted in 2005 even though her driver’s license clearly stated her address was in Aventura.
These stories have generated responses from anonymous commentators questioning the veracity of my reporting. Some people have even said I’ve written lies. And they have demanded proof from me. So here it is, folks:
So there you have it. If it waddles like a pelican, squawks like a pelican, and flies like a pelican, it must be a pelican.
