No he couldn't he lived in Leesburg VA. at the time. This is not new and one of the reasons Casey beat him, that and his refusal to support Toomey against Specter. He declared a relative's home as his residence in PA. so he could send his kids to cyber-school on Penn Hills dime.
Believe me, many strong Santorum supporters turned their backs on him after this fiasco. It wasn't so much that he did it but rather that he fought it and declared that because he owned the home in PA. which he rented out, that qualified him as a resident of the school district even though his kids sat in Leesburg while using the cyber-school.
"If a person removes to the District of Columbia or other federal territory or foreign country to engage in the government service, he shall not be considered to have lost his residence in this state during the period of such service, and the place where the person resided at the time of his removal shall be considered and held to be his place of residence."

That has been the law of the Republic since the beginning.
I really have no idea where you people come up with this nonsense.
I'm sure. That's what the Left does -- invent a controversy, freeze the target, Alinsky style political assassination -- and get the weak-minded to attack their own and delivery a victory for the Left.
Congratulations, useful pawns for the Left.
