AMITYVILLE, N.Y. (AP)  -- Suffolk County Legislator Elie Mystal has resigned because of questions about where he lives. Mystal, a Democrat, stepped down Wednesday, the same day Suffolk County District Attorney Thomas Spota's office subpoenaed his voting and other records from the county board of elections.

Mystal's resignation letter dated May 7th said ``Due to the Suffolk County district attorney's office investigation into my domicile at the time of my re-election in November of 2007, I have decided to resign my office as Suffolk County Legislator for the 15th District effective immediately.''

A special election must be held no later than 90 days from the day Mystal resigned to elect a new legislator to serve the remainder of his two-year term, which ends December 31st, 2009.
