PHOENIX — A judge is set to decide Tuesday whether a gubernatorial hopeful can run for office despite the fact he didn’t list his actual home address on nominating papers and petitions.
At a court hearing Monday, Andrew Pappas acknowledged his client, Hugh Lytle, listed a private mailbox at a UPS store on Hayden and Indian Bend roads in Scottsdale as his “residential address” when he filed his paperwork to run as a candidate for the No Labels Party.
Pappas, however, told Maricopa County Superior Court Judge that Lytle has “substantially complied” with the law. He said it is the mailing address for Lytle’s El Toro Ventures. And he told Maricopa County Superior Court Judge Michael Mandell that there was no intent to deceive voters even though he actually lives in north Scottsdale.
