Please correct me if I'm wrong, but VP cannot be a resident of the same state as POTUS.
There is no restriction against VP and POTUS being from the same state.
There is a restriction against electors (electoral college delegates) voting for a POTUS and VP that are both from the same state as the elector.
Technically POTUS and VP are elected independently from each other. In practice the electors always vote for the pair of running mates - but there are actually two separate ballots.
What it would mean would be that Trump could win Florida for POTUS but DeSantis could not win for VP ( or vice versa). Florida would be the only state impacted this way. Theoretically it could lead to Trump winning POTUS and the dem VP pick winning VP.
Thank You!
