To be elected to Congress, a candidate must meet three primary stipulations: they must be at least 25 years old, have been a U.S. citizen for at least seven years, and be a resident of the state they wish to represent. The third stipulation, therefore, is that the candidate must be a resident of the state they seek to represent. This ensures that elected officials have a connection to and understanding of the needs and interests of their constituents.
