To run for office from a district one is required to be a resident of that district. Wexler lives in Maryland and has for more than a decade now. He has no residence in South Florida, though his ML does ... and of course he claims it as his residence.

No Person shall be a Representative who shall not have attained to the Age of twenty five Years, and been seven Years a Citizen of the United States, and who shall not, when elected, be an Inhabitant of that State in which he shall be chosen.

Well, at least the same state.

Is that a Fed or state law?..... What happens in redistricting when a congress critter is moved out of his district? Seems I’ve read of that happening before but don’t know the reprecussions regarding being able to run or be re-elected.
