Georgia Democrat Jon Ossoff's home outside of Georgia's sixth congressional district seems to have moved half a mile in two months.
Ossoff, who cannot vote for himself in the special election race against Republican Karen Handel because of his address, has been consistently asked about the issue on the campaign trail.
Ossoff told CNN's Alisyn Camerota on April 18 that he lived a "mile and a half down the street" from the sixth district so his girlfriend could easily attend Emory Medical School.
On Monday, Ossoff told MSNBC's Lawrence O'Donnell he lived "two miles south" of the district.
But both claims are a far cry from a campaign volunteer telling Ossoff canvassers in May that the candidate lives "three blocks away from the district."
It is unclear if Ossoff's change in distance was prompted by Washington Free Beacon reporter Brent Scher. He painstakingly documented his two-hour journey on Monday to walk more than three miles from Ossoff's home to the sixth district.
Later that evening, Ossoff's campaign informed Scher he was not welcome to cover the candidate's remarks the night before the election.

Why haven’t Republicans stuck Jon with the nickname Jack (Jack Usoff)?
I think they should beat this relentlessly.
Alan West didn't live in his district when he ran for Congress.
Who cares? We like Alan West. :)
He must be living in a mobile home, since it moves further from the district.
“And i want him investigated for obstruction when he invariably tries to stop the investigation.”
Yup, he doesn’t live in the district and he obstructed others who did.
Forty years ago, I tried to become a Congressional page, for the 9th district in Florida. The problem was that while I lived in the district, my school was half a mile away, in the 5th district, so according to the people involved with such assignments, I didn’t exist. If I didn’t qualify to work for Congress, why should carpetbagger Ossoff get an exception to the rules?
Doesn’t he live with his mother figure girl friend in another district to avoid having to pay for a roof of his own over his head .
Carpetbagger!
