The same person can't serve as President and Vice-President. If the same man were elected to both office, there would be a vacancy in the office of the Vice-President, which would be filled under the terms of the 25th ammendment upon the President's swearing in.

Dick Cheney lived in Texas until he was named Bush's running mate, at which point he changed his registration to his Wyoming ranch.
