Trump/Densantis is problematic unless DJT changes his residence back to New York. 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.” Florida’s elector couldn’t vote for both, so you could end up with the VP candidate not getting FL’s electoral votes. In most cases, it wouldn’t matter. In 2000, if Cheney hadn’t changed back to Wyoming, he could have been disqualified from TX’s electoral votes, and we could have ended up with Bush-Lieberman (which actually might have an improvement, but that’s for another discussion).

Can’t. They’re from the same state.
