5. That is in ALL 50 states.
On the ticket NATION-WIDE the presidential candidate and the vice-presidential candidate must reside in different states.
So, the presidential candidate (both parties) can 'never' pick someone from their state of residence to be their running mate.

If Palin's state of legal residency at the time of the election (or it might be at the time of officially registering to run) is Arizona then she can pick anyone from any state other than Arizona.

If her legal residency is still Alaska, and the Arizona home is considered her 2nd home or her campaign headquarters and not her legal state of residency, then she will not be able to pick anyone from Alaska to be a running mate.
