President and VP cannot be from same state.
They can but the electors can only vote for one of them.
Trump would need enough EVs to cover the loss of Fla fir Rubio as VP.
“President and VP cannot be from same state.”
Trump may be a resident of New York again when the electors vote.

I wanted Byron Daniels because I believed this had been litigated or could be handled acceptably.
Not so.
Another big league lawsuit for President Trump.
Please, no.
they can they just can’t claim the electoral votes from their state.
if an election turns out to be particularly close, the rule could potentially come into play. It almost did in the notoriously contentious election of 2000. When Texas Gov. George W. Bush chose Dick Cheney as his running mate on the Republican ticket, Cheney had been living and voting and paying taxes for five years in Texas. Shortly before the election, however, Cheney obtained a Wyoming driver’s license and put his Dallas home on the market. (He had a vacation home in Wyoming, which is the state he had formerly represented in the U.S. Congress.)
Good thing for him he did: The Bush-Cheney ticket ended up winning with 271 electoral votes—just a slim five-vote margin—over Al Gore and Joe Lieberman, a total they certainly wouldn’t have hit without Texas’ 32 votes.
Like Chaney who changed his residency from Texas, Trump could change his residency to say NJ
Uhhh… did you know that people have been known to relocate?
