But did they try it with the election board, or just with the public?

Are they required to live in the state? Maybe we need to get that defined as to how many days they must be present there.

Although I grant there is a bit of a catch-22 here, as they are also required to be in DC for certain set periods.

And no, I don’t think parents should necessarily be separated from their children for long periods and yes I want parents serving in congress.

They are required to be an inhabitant, which in most states is determined if you are registered to vote in the state. She's not the only Senator who spends virtually no time in their home state. Roberts doesn't. Rockefeller in West Virginia doesn't. I'm sure there are a bunch of others as well.
