…gets her to accept gift basket at \u2018real home\u2019 in Tennessee<\/h3>\n

Georgia Democratic<\/a>\u00a0Rep. Lucy McBath was the target of some creative trolling by the Republican Party over her widely disputed claim\u00a0that she actually lives in Georgia,\u00a0after receiving and signing for\u00a0a gift basket the GOP sent to her address — in Tennessee.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n
\n
McBath, a racial justice activist who defeated Republican incumbent Karen Handel in November, has been dogged with questions since the election <\/a>campaign on whether she actually lives in the state she now represents.<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
The state\u2019s Cobb County Tax Commissioner\u2019s Office, which refrained from issuing a decision during the election due to appeals, confirmed last month that McBath didn\u2019t meet the requirements to call her Cobb County home her primary residence for the three tax years leading up to the election, meaning she was a Tennessee resident when she was elected to Congress.<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

To point out McBath\u2019s deep Tennessean roots, the National Republican Congressional Committee sent a goody bag containing coffee infused with Jack Daniel’s Tennessee Whiskey, Memphis-style BBQ sauce and a hat of the Tennessee Volunteers to her Rockford, Tenn., home.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n

There’s Jack Daniel’s infused coffee- who knew? Tip of the old chapeau to AnotherPat for the link. Read the rest of the article here: Fox News<\/a><\/p>\n
