That is true. It would be an issue in a close election. It could result in the Congress selecting a VP.
It can end in a Trump/Harris result.

Yes he can.The VP can't be from FL.
The US Constitution, the 12th Amendment, says so, or they forfeit the EC votes from their home state.Why?
I doubt that a Democrat Congress would appoint her. I know a Republican Congress would not.It can end in a Trump/Harris result.
A president and VP can be from the same state. Period.The US Constitution, the 12th Amendment, says so, or they forfeit the EC votes from their home state.
The Electors shall meet in their respective states, and vote by ballot for President and Vice-President, one of whom, at least, shall not be an inhabitant of the same state with themselves12th Amendment and President and Vice Presidents from same states

OK, they can be, but it would be stupid since they would lose the EC votes from their home state.A president and VP can be from the same state. Period.
That would only be an issue in a very close election.OK, they can be, but it would be stupid since they would lose the EC votes from their home state.
They would call him the black face of white supremacy.Tim Scott could be a good choice. It would be difficult for Dems to attack him without seeming racist.
It's not going to matter because he is not going to win in November anyway.Do you think it’s essential for Trump to pander and pick a woman or person of color? Would it hurt him if he picks a white guy?
In 10 yrs I’ve never started a thread, hopefully I did it right.
He lost the black vote the last time he ran in SC. But Scott could serve to help keep blacks home in blue statesThey would call him the black face of white supremacy.
Nikki got less than 40% of the vote in her own state. She won DC that is mostly Democrat and almost certainly had a lot of Democrat crossover votes and she won in Vermont almost certainly via Democrat crossover votes while Trump has easily won every single other state. Her approval rating according to Five Thirty Eight polling is 10 points below Trump's nationwide as of two days ago and even below Biden.If the Haley statement above is true, Republicans would be wise to dump Trump and run her. It is certain a majority would prefer her to Biden.
yes there isThere’s no law which says president and VP can not be from the same state.
Trump should pick the most qualified candidate.Do you think it’s essential for Trump to pander and pick a woman or person of color? Would it hurt him if he picks a white guy?

Yadda, yadda, yadda.Nikki got less than 40% of the vote in her own state.

Yes some Republicans want pretty much anybody other than Trump. But when it comes time to pull that lever or mark that ballot on election day, are they going to vote for Biden? Or somebody that has no chance to win? I'm betting they will know and accept that Trump is the only option we have to wrest power from the almost demonic regime currently in power. And I hope they know he needs a reformer GOP congress to have the means to fully turn things around.
There is no law which says a president and VP can not be from the same state.yes there is
No. There is no such law.yes there is
I doubt that a Democrat Congress would appoint her. I know a Republican Congress would not.
Nobody is polling that now. And I never believed the polling during the primary season because it was so all over the place there were no definite conclusions to be had. Five Thirty Eight and the RCP average both have Nikki's approval lower than Joe Biden now.Yadda, yadda, yadda.
Nikki beats Biden by way more than Trump. That's what mattered to me.
We'll see if the dems "voter fraud" machines will slip old Joe past Trump again.
