Article II : "The electors shall meet in their respective states, and vote by ballot for two persons, of whom one at least shall not be an inhabitant of the same state with themselves
So an elector from a state where the candidate is a resident can only vote if one of the candidates on the ticket is not a resident of the state. If both are residents, the elector can't vote- thus losing the electoral votes from that state.They may win on election night, but when it comes time for the electoral college itself to vote after the election, their votes would be challenged.
Can the president and vice president be from the same state?
Thank You
