State Senator Carole Migden's East Bay Deed
For many years I've heard the rumor about San Francisco State Senator Carole Migden not being a full-time resident of the city. People have said she really lives and spends most of her time in the East Bay, with her longtime companion Cristina Arguedas, a criminal defense attorney with an office in downtown Berkeley.
What with all the recent news and controversy over Ed Jew, a member of the San Francisco Board of Supervisors who can't prove he lives in the Sunset district he was elected to represent and seems have stronger residential ties to the city of Burlingame, I decided to search through Alameda County public records for any real estate files on Migden.
The most interesting document to turn up relates to a deed with Migden's name. Now just because her name is on a deed in Alameda County does not necessarily mean she lives there. Migden could simply own property over there and this shouldn't imply she doesn't meet legal requirements as a San Francisco resident and elected official.
Unlike Jew, who gives every indication of being politically clueless and woefully ignorant of many laws, Migden is an intelligent legislator and savvy operative. It's impossible for me to think she, and her attorney girlfriend, would be as dumb as Jew and not be able to produce voluminous proof she resides in the State Senate district she represents in Sacramento.
However, now is a good time to ask all of San Francisco's elected officials, at every level, to prove they are legally domiciled in the residence they claim is theirs and in the district they represent.
