Home state is the state where the candidate currently resides, and filed taxes in for the current year.  This is important for constitutional purposes- the constitution mandates that a Presidential elector must cast one of his or her two votes (President and Vice-President) for an individual who is not from the same state as the elector.  For this reason, Presidential tickets always have two candidates from different states.
