This guy, a consititional scholar say you can be rom the same state
Question: Does the U.S. Constitution prevent candidates from running for President and Vice President if they come from the same state? If so, why?
From Kevin Wagner
Answer: This is one of those rules that many people get wrong. There actually is nothing in the U.S. Constitution that prevents candidates for President and Vice President who live in the same state from running together. As a practical matter, it might be a bad idea, since presidential tickets are often put together to create geographic diversity. But, having two from the same state is permissible.
The confusion comes from a misinterpretation of the Constitution. Article II, paragraph 3 states that “The electors ... shall vote for two persons, of whom one at least shall not be an inhabitant of the same state with themselves.” It’s a bit of unclear, but what it prohibits is an elector from casting both of his or her votes for candidates from the same state in which the elector lives.
