KITCHENS, Justice,
for the Court:
¶1. In October 2013, William “Bill” Stone moved from Ashland in Benton County to Holly Springs in Marshall County. He now seeks the Democratic Party nomination for the newly-created Senate District 10, a district which encompasses parts of Marshall County, including Stone’s home in Holly Springs, and parts of Tate County. On March 2, 2015, Steve Hale,1 a resident of Tate County who also is seeking the Democratic nomination for District 10, filed an objection to Stone’s candidacy with the State of Mississippi Democratic Executive Committee, arguing that Stone is ineligible to run for that office because he does not meet the two-year residency requirement enunciated in Article 4, Section 42, of the Mississippi Constitution. Specifically, Hale argued that Stone could not be a resident of Marshall County because Stone had not abandoned his domicile in Benton County. Following its hearing on March 13, 2015, the Executive Committee rejected Hale’s objection and certified that Stone had satisfied the qualifications for candidacy. Hale sought judicial review in the Circuit Court of the First Judicial District of Hinds County. On June 19, 2015, the circuit court held that Stone had been domiciled in Marshall County since October 2013 and was qualified to run for senator of District 10. Hale appealed to this Court.2 We affirm the decision of the Circuit Court of the First Judicial District of 'Hinds County because, in accordance with the Mississippi Constitution and precedent of this Court, the circuit court was not in manifest error in holding that Stone had proven that he had established his domicile in Marshall County and that he therefore was qualified to run for the office of senator for District 10.
FACTS AND PROCEDURAL HISTORY
¶ 2. In 1988, Bill Stone purchased a home at 47 Winborn Avenue in Ashland, Mississippi, which is located in Benton County. He lived in the Ashland home with his wife, Debbie, off and on from 1988 to 2013. During his residency in Ashland, Stone was active in the local community, holding membership in the Ashland Civic Club, volunteering with the Ashland volunteer fire department, and attending Ash-land Baptist Church. In 2007 and 2011, Stone was elected to represent District 2 in the Mississippi Senate. At that time, Senate District 2 was comprised of parts of Benton, Tippah, and Marshall Counties. Sixty-five percent of Senate District 2 was in Marshall County.
¶ 3. In 2012, Mississippi underwent significant redistricting, which affected the boundary lines for the State’s legislative districts, both for the House of Representatives and Senate. Under the redistricting plan, Stone’s home on Winborn Avenue in Ashland was located in Senate District 3. Stone decided that he preferred to reside in Holly Springs, which had been part of the former Senate District 2 and which he had represented as State Senator. Holly Springs had become a part of Senate District 10. The newly-drawn Sen[949]*949ate District 10 included portions of Marshall and Tate Counties.
¶ 4. In October of 2013, Stone rented a house from his brother at 305 Peel Lane in Holly Springs. Stone and his wife decided to live exclusively in the home’s “mother-in-law suite” in order to cut back on their expenses. The “mother-in-law suite” is less than half the size of Stone’s Ashland home. After moving into the Peel Lane house, Stone immediately contacted the Holly Springs Utility Department to obtain electrical service for the home. The Peel Lane house’s water was provided by a private well, and the home did not have natural gas service. Stone transferred his DirectTV box and service to his new residence. For the majority of the time that Stone resided at the Peel Lane house, the State Senate was in session in Jackson.
¶ 5. Although he had claimed homestead exemption in 2013 for his home in Ashland, Stone did not claim homestead exemption in 2014, because the rental home on Peel Lane in Holly Springs was ineligible. Furthermore, in February 2014 and September 2014, when they came due, Stone registered the car tags on his and his wife’s cars in Marshall County. In April 2014, Stone registered to vote in Marshall County. On his 2014 federal income tax return, Stone listed the home on Peel Lane as his home address. He also adjusted the mileage deduction he claimed on his federal income tax return to reflect a move to Marshall County. Additionally, on October 27, 2013, he notified the State Senate comptroller of his change of address, and the comptroller sent an e-mail to every member of the Senate informing them of the change.
¶ 6. Stone also transferred his other affiliations from Ashland to Holly Springs. He did not renew his membership in the Ashland Civic Club, and he resigned from his post as an Ashland volunteer firefighter. He and his wife began attending church at Heritage Apostolic Church in Holly Springs.
¶ 7. In July 2014, Stone purchased a home at 200 Johnson Park in Holly Springs. In 2015 he claimed homestead exemption for the Johnson Park home and listed the home as his residence on his federal income tax return.
¶ 8. Stone did not sell his house in Ashland when he moved to Holly Springs, planning to convert it into a rental property. When Stone was in Jackson serving in the Mississippi Legislature or when he traveled out of town, his wife frequently stayed in the Ashland home. Occasionally, Stone’s wife did laundry at the Ashland house or took her lunch break there. In July 2014, Stone filled the Ashland house’s above ground pool for his grandchildren to swim there during the summer. Stone’s grandchildren regularly left their bikes on the Ashland house’s front lawn.
¶ 9. After moving to Holly Springs, Stone announced that he was planning to run for the District 10 Senate seat. On March 2, 2015, Steve Hale, a resident of Tate County who also was seeking the Democratic nomination for District 10, filed an objection to Stone’s candidacy with the State of Mississippi Democratic Executive Committee, arguing that Stone was ineligible to run for that office because he did not meet the two-year residency requirement found in Article 4, Section 42, of the Mississippi Constitution. Specifically, Hale argued that Stone could not be a resident of Marshall County because he never had abandoned his domicile in Benton County. After conducting a hearing on the matter on March 13, 2015, the Executive Committee rejected Hale’s objection and certified that Stone had established the requisite qualifications for District 10 Senate candidacy.
[950]*950¶ 10. On March 16, 2015, Hale filed a Petition to Contest the Qualifications of Bill Stone as a Candidate for Senate District 10 in the Circuit Court of the First Judicial District of Hinds County, seeking judicial review of the State of Mississippi Democratic Executive Committee’s decision. On March 18, 2015, this Court assigned a special judge, the Honorable Frank Vollor, to decide whether Stone had established his domicile in Holly Springs, Marshall County. On June 18, 2015, the circuit court conducted an evidentiary hearing. In support of his allegation that Stone had not abandoned his home in Benton County, Hale presented utility records for both the house on Peel Lane (Marshall County) and the house in Ashland (Benton County). According to these documents, Stone had used 230 kilowatt hours of electricity a month at the rental house and 740 kilowatt hours of electricity a month at his Ashland house. Hale also presented various photographs of Stone’s homes taken on different days. In one picture, Stone’s mother’s truck was parked at the Ashland (Benton County) house. In another picture, taken at noon on a weekday, no cars were parked in front of the home at 200 Johnson Park. In yet another picture, Stone’s wife’s car was parked at the Ash-land house on a Friday during her lunch hour. Hale also presented a Facebook post in which Stone was pictured watching a football game with his grandson in Benton County.
¶ 11. Hale also sought to introduce into evidence the testimony of Wallace Majors, a “utility analyst.” Majors purported to be an expert in utility usage and claimed that he was able to determine, based upon utility consumption, whether a dwelling was “occupied” or “unoccupied.” After reading Majors’s curriculum vitae and expert report, the trial court excluded him as an expert in utility consumption. In an order signed on June 17, 2015, the circuit court summarized Wallace’s testimony thusly: “Mr. Majors holds himself out as an expert in energy conservation and utility rates and attempts to arbitrarily graft [the] terms ... of ‘occupied’ and ‘unoccupied’ [on houses] ... for ... a determination of domicile.” The circuit court determined that Majors’s opinion was without “a scientific basis” and that it was “based upon a number of assumptions that have no factual or scientifically tested basis.” During the evidentiary hearing on June 18, 2015, Hale was allowed to proffer Majors’s testimony. According to Majors, the rental house on Peel Lane (Marshall County) was “unoccupied” from October 2013 to July 2014, and the house in Ashland (Benton County) was “occupied” during that time.
¶ 12. Stone testified at the evidentiary hearing. He said under oath that he had no plans to return to the home in Ashland and that he intended to remain in Marshall County indefinitely.
¶ 13. The circuit court held that Stone had established a domicile in Marshall County in 2013 which has continued to the present. The circuit court found that:
[C]ounting kilowatt hours cannot be the sole determination of where a person lives for purpose of establishing domicile. The place ... a person designates as [his or her] home and take[s] such steps as filing homestead exemption, cancelling homestead exemption, giving the IRS the registration, registering to vote, and giving all appropriate parties the information establishes the domicile of a person for qualification to run for State Senate.
The circuit court further held that “Stone has provided absolute proof without any contingencies that he has met the requirements to run in Senate District 10.” As an alternative basis supporting its decision, [951]*951the circuit court found that, even if Stone had not established his domicile in District 10 by moving to Holly Springs, he would have established domicile in Marshall County through the doctrine of tacking.
¶ 14. Hale appealed the circuit court’s decision to this Court. He presents three issues for this Court’s consideration:
I. Whether the circuit court committed manifest error in determining that Bill Stone moved his domicile to Marshall County.
II. Whether the circuit court erred in determining that Bill Stone had established his domicile in Marshall County through the doctrine of tacking.
III. Whether the circuit court erred in excluding the expert testimony of Wallace Majors, a “utility analyst.”
DISCUSSION
I. Whether the circuit court committed manifest error in determining that Bill Stone moved his domicile to Marshall County.
¶ 15. We have held that “[i]n a candidate qualification challenge, the standard of review for questions of law is de novo.” Young v. Stevens, 968 So.2d 1260, 1262 (Miss.2007) (citing Ladner v. Necaise, 771 So.2d 853, 355 (Miss.2000)). “[W]e review findings of fact by a trial judge sitting without a jury for manifest error, including whether the findings were the product of prejudice, bias, or fraud, or manifestly against the weight of the credible evidence.” Id. at 1263 (citations omitted). We have held that “whether a candidate meets [the] residency requirement [to run for office] clearly involves questions of fact.” Bryant v. Westbrooks, 99 So.3d 128, 134 (Miss.2012).
¶ 16. Article 4, Section 42, of the Mississippi Constitution requires that a candidate for the Mississippi Senate be “an actual resident of the district or territory he may be chosen to represent for two years before his election.” Miss. Const. art. 4, § 42. In Mississippi, for the purpose of elections, residency and domicile are synonymous. Hubbard v. McKey, 193 So.2d 129, 132 (Miss.1966); Jones v. State, 207 Miss. 208, 214, 42 So.2d 123, 125 (1949). The definition of domicile in this State is well established: “there must have been (1) an actual residence voluntarily established in said county, (2) with the bona fide intention of remaining there, if not permanently, at least indefinitely.” Smith v. Smith, 194 Miss. 431, 434, 12 So.2d 428, 429 (1943).
¶ 17. To prove his position that he had changed his domicile from Benton County to Marshall County, Stone provided an abundance of evidence. In October 2013, Stone rented a house at 305 Peel Lane in Holly Springs, the county seat of Marshall County, and he obtained utility service for the home. In July 2014, he bought a home at 200 Johnson Park in Holly Springs. Furthermore, he notified the Senate comptroller about his change of address, and the comptroller sent an email to every member of the Senate informing them of the change. Further, he changed his address on his income tax filings to 305 Peel Lane, Holly Springs, Marshall County in 2014, and 200 Johnson Park, also in Holly Springs, Marshall County, in 2015. Moreover, he adjusted the mileage deduction he claimed on his federal income tax return to ■ reflect his move to Marshall County. He registered to vote in Marshall County in April 2014. When they came due, he registered his car tags to Marshall County. He also altered major aspects of his life, including the church he attended, to Marshall County. [952]*952Additionally, he resigned from his post as an Ashland volunteer firefighter and allowed his membership in the Ashland Civic Club to lapse. Significantly, he canceled his homestead exemption for his Ashland residence in Benton County, did not claim homestead exemption anywhere in 2014 while he was renting the house on Peel Street in Marshall County, and claimed homestead exemption in 2015 for his Johnson Park home in Holly Springs, Marshall County. Finally, Stone testified under oath and without contradiction that he moved to Marshall County with the intent to remain there indefinitely.
¶ 18. In Hinds County Election Commission v. Brinston, 671 So.2d 667 (Miss.1996), this Court held that “there is a strong but rebuttable presumption of residency in the county where the homestead exemption is filed.” Id. at 669. This presumption exists “because of the benefit in the form of tax relief one receives by filing.” Id. Our statutory scheme for homestead exemptions does not require the resident to file a hew application unless there has been an alteration in “the property description, ownership, use or occupancy since January 1 of the preceding year.” Miss.Code Ann. § 27-33-31 (Rev. 2013). Thus, a valid homestead exemption on a property persists unless the resident takes affirmative action to cancel or alter it. Moreover, the Mississippi Code defines homestead as the dwelling “actually occupied as the primary home of a family group.” Miss.Code Ann. § 27-33-19 (Rev. 2013).
¶ 19. Although canceling one’s homestead exemption does not give rise to a rebuttable presumption regarding his or her domicile, it can provide relevant circumstantial evidence of a person’s intention to establish a new domicile, which should be considered along with the other relevant facts and circumstances of the case. Here, the fact that Stone did not claim homestead exemption in 2014 should be considered in conjunction with his having rented the house on Peel Lane in Holly Springs, which, as a rental property, was ineligible for homestead exemption. When he purchased the home at 200 Johnson Park in Holly Springs, Marshall County, Stone filed for homestead exemption in Marshall County. From the point in time at which he filed for homestead exemption in Marshall County, Stone enjoyed a re-buttable presumption that his domicile was in Marshall County. Brinston, 671 So.2d at 669.
¶ 20. Also, we cannot ignore the well established law of this State concerning the importance of one’s intent in establishing his or her domicile. This Court has held: “The foundation of domicile is intent.” Stubbs v. Stubbs, 211 So.2d 821, 825 (Miss.1968). Stated differently, “[a]s a domicilíe] may be acquired by a longer or shorter residence, depending upon the circumstances of the case, its true basis and foundation must be the intention, the quo animo of evidence. The apparent or avowed intention of residence, not the manner of it, constitutes domicilíe].” Hairston v. Hairston, 27 Miss. 704, 719 (1854). Moreover, “even where a party has two residences at different seasons of the year, that will be esteemed his domi-cilíe] which he himself selects, or describes, or deems to be his home, or which appears to be the centre of his affairs, or where he votes or exercises the rights and duties of a citizen.” Id. (citation omitted). This Court has held that “intention may be established by physical presence, declaration of intent, and all relevant facts and circumstances, and in this connection it has been held that the declarations of the party himself are most important.” Stubbs, 211 So.2d at 825 (emphasis added). Our precedent dictates that Stone’s statements [953]*953of intention regarding his domicile are critical to our analysis, and thus we are bound to consider that Stone testified under oath that he intended to abandon his home in Ashland for the purpose of establishing a residence in Holly Springs and remaining there indefinitely. See Young, 968 So.2d at 1262.
¶ 21. We have held that “[t]he exercise of political rights, admissions, declarations, the acts of purchasing a home and long-continued residency are circumstances indicative of his intention to abandon his domicile of origin and to establish a new domicile.” Johnson v. Johnson, 191 So.2d 840, 842 (Miss.1966) (citation omitted). Taking into consideration all of these factors, the circuit court did not err in determining that Stone’s domicile has existed in Marshall County since October of 2013.
¶22. Hale argues that Stone is not domiciled in Marshall County, because “overwhelming proof shows that he actually resides elsewhere.” Young, 968 So.2d at 1262. The appropriate standard of review for the circuit court’s fact findings is “manifest error.” Id. Hale argues that Stone could not have resided at the Peel Lane (Marshall County) house because he used only 230 kilowatt hours of electricity a month at the rental house and he used 740 kilowatt hours of electricity a month at his Ashland (Benton County) house. However, Stone provided a plausible explanation for this disparity in energy usage between the two homes. First, for most of the time that he resided at the Peel Lane home, Stone was in Jackson serving in the State Senate.3 Furthermore, he and his wife lived only in the Peel Lane home’s “mother-in-law suite,” which was substantially smaller than the couple’s home in Ashland. The circuit court considered this testimony in addition to the kilowatt hours of electricity the couple consumed at the Peel Lane home and determined that “counting kilowatt hours cannot be the sole determination of where a person lives for the purpose of establishing domicile.” Furthermore, Hale relies upon a smattering of other evidence including pictures taken of Stone’s houses, a Facebook post, Stone having filled the pool at the Ashland house for the couple’s grandchildren to swim there during the summer, Stone’s wife having stayed at the Ashland house when Stone was in Jackson to perform his duties in the Legislature, and that Stone’s wife occasionally having done laundry at the Ashland house. We reiterate that the circuit court based its decision on a multitude of facts that were probative of Stone’s having transferred his domicile to Marshall County, including, inter alia, that Stone claimed homestead exemption in Marshall County, registered to vote in Marshall County, and testified under oath and without contradiction that he planned to remain at his home in Marshall County indefinitely. Not one of the facts upon which Hale relies concerning electricity usage or Stone’s grandchildren swimming in the pool at the Ashland house renders the circuit court’s decision to have been manifestly erroneous.
¶ 23. Hale contends that Stone may have purchased a new residence in Marshall County but that he had not established his domicile there because he did not provide “absolute proof’ that he aban[954]*954doned his domicile in Ashland. But there is no law which requires an electoral candidate to prove his or her domicile through “absolute proof.” Section 23-15-299 of the Mississippi Code provides:
If the proper executive committee finds that a candidate either (a) is not a qualified elector, (b) does not meet all qualifications to hold the office he seeks and fails to provide absolute proof, subject to no contingencies, that he will meet the qualifications on or before the date of the general or special election at which he could be elected ... then the name of such candidate shall not be placed upon the ballot.
Miss.Code Ann. § 23-15-299(7) (Rev.2007). According to the plain language of the statute, the only criterion a candidate must show by “absolute proof’ is that “he will meet the qualifications on or before the date of the ... election.” Id. The “absolute proof’ burden of production does not extend to a candidate’s underlying qualifications themselves.4 Moreover, imposing a burden of “absolute proof’ on a candidate’s underlying qualifications for office is unprecedented and inconsistent with orn-ease law. In Garner v. State of Mississippi Democratic Executive Committee, 956 So.2d 906 (Miss.2007), this Court engaged in a bifurcated analysis to determine whether the candidate was qualified for office. First, the Court engaged in an ordinary analysis regarding the location of the candidate’s domicile, employing a “manifest error” standard of review. Id. at 909-10. Then, the Court determined that the candidate had failed to provide “absolute proof’ that he would meet the requirements to seek office. Id. at 911.
¶ 24. The dissent suggests that, for purpose of Section 23-15-299, a candidate’s underlying qualifications are subsumed into a candidate’s duty to' meet those qualifications. Therefore, notwithstanding the plain language of the statute, the “absolute proof’ burden of production extends to the candidate’s underlying qualifications. This interpretation belies the manifest error standard of review, which we heretofore have employed in every case in which a circuit court has made a determination regarding a candidate’s domicile. See Young, 968 So.2d at 1262 (“[W]e review findings of fact by a trial judge sitting without a jury for manifest error, including whether the findings were the product of prejudice, bias, or fraud, or manifestly against the weight of the credible evidence.”); Garner, 956 So.2d at 909 (“[W]e review findings of fact by a trial judge sitting without a jury for manifest error.”); Westbrooks, 99 So.3d at 131. Relying on Black’s Law Dictionary, this Court has defined manifest error as an error that is “unmistakable, clear, plain, or indisputable.” Brennan v. Brennan, 638 So.2d 1320, 1323 (Miss.1994) (quoting Black’s Law Dictionary 963 (6th ed.1990)). By adopting an “absolute proof’ burden of production, we would assume the task of scouring every record before the Court for any and all information which might contradict a circuit court’s factual finding that a candidate was timely domiciled in a specific electoral district. This would amount to an inspection for errors that are far less [955]*955conspicuous than those that are “unmistakable, clear, plain, or indisputable.” Id. (quoting Black’s Law Dictionary 963 (6th ed.1990)).
¶ 25. Ultimately, the circuit court did not commit manifest error in holding that Stone had established his domicile in October 2013 in Holly Springs, Marshall County. Thus, Stone has provided “absolute proof, subject to no contingencies, that he will meet the qualifications on or before the date of the general or special election at which he could be elected.” Miss.Code Ann. § 23-15-299(7) (Rev.2007).
II. Whether the circuit court erred in determining that Bill Stone had established his domicile in Marshall County through the doctrine of tacking.
¶ 26. Because the circuit court did not commit manifest error in determining that Stone had established his domicile in Marshall County, the issue of whether Stone could become a domiciliary of Marshall County through the doctrine of tacking is moot. We reserve consideration of the impact that tacking may have on a candidate’s residency for purpose' of redistricting for another day. See Cameron v. Mississippi Republican Party, 890 So.2d 836, 843 (Miss.2004) (“[W]e will leave for another day the questions of whether Art. 4, § 42[,] requires a candidate to live in the district for at least two years immediately preceding the election and what effect, if any, redistricting has on residency requirements and tacking.”).
III. Whether the circuit court erred in excluding the expert testimony of Wallace Majors, a “utility analyst.”
¶ 27. The admission of expert testimony is within the sound discretion of the trial judge. Bishop v. State, 982 So.2d 371, 380 (Miss.2008). This Court will not reverse a trial court’s decision to exclude expert testimony unless it finds that the trial court’s decision “was arbitrary and clearly erroneous, amounting to an abuse of discretion.” Id. (citations omitted).
¶ 28. Mississippi Rule of Evidence 702, which governs the admissibility of expert testimony, provides:
If scientific, technical or other specialized knowledge will assist the trier of fact to understand the evidence dr to determine a fact in issue, a witness qualified as an expert by knowledge, skill, experience, training, or education, may testify thereto in the form of an opinion or otherwise, if (1) the testimony is based upon sufficient facts or data, (2) the testimony is the product of reliable principles and methods, and (3) the witness has applied the principles and methods reliably to the facts of the case.
¶ 29. In Mississippi Transportation Commission v. McLemore, 863 So.2d 31 (Miss.2003), we explained that trial courts should follow a modified, two-pronged Daubert test in determining whether expert testimony is admissible under Rule 702. Under this test, the trial court first must determine whether “the expert testimony is relevant.” McLemore, 863 So.2d at 38. Next, the court should decide whether “the proffered testimony is reliable.” Id. Trial courts may consider additional factors, including, “[w]hether the theory or technique can be and has been tested; whether it has been subjected to peer review and publication; whether, in respect to a particular technique, there is a high known or potential rate of error; and whether the theory or technique enjoys general acceptance within a relevant scientific community.” Anderson v. State, 62 So.3d 927, 937 (Miss.2011) (citing Daubert v. Merrell Dow Pharms., Inc., 509 U.S. 579, 593-94, 113 S.Ct. 2786, 125 L.Ed.2d 469 (1993)).
[956]*956¶ 30. In this case, Hale sought to present the testimony of Wallace Majors, a “utility expert.” According to Majors, he could look at buildings’ utility usage rates and determine whether they were “occupied” or “unoccupied.” Majors provided no scientific basis for his opinions. Majors did. not prove that there is an accepted community of utility experts who perform analyses similar to his or this type of analysis. Moreover, he did not prove that the methodology he used in reaching his opinions was accepted by any scientific community, and he did not demonstrate that his opinions were based upon dependable training or experience. In fact, Majors conceded that he had never before presented this type of opinion in circuit court before. Ultimately, there is nothing in the record that Majors’s opinions were anything other than speculation.
¶ 31. Hale argues that Majors based his opinions on utility records provided by the City of Ashland and records from the City of Holly Springs Utility Department.' This may be true and the records upon which Majors based his opinion may be reliable.. But even if Majors used reliable information in formulating his opinion, this is insufficient to render his methodology reliable, admissible, or sound.
¶ 32. Given that there is nothing in the record attesting to the reliability of Majors’s methods or analysis, it cannot reasonably be argued that the trial court abused its discretion in excluding it from the evidentiary hearing.
CONCLUSION
¶ 33. In sum, it was not manifest error for the trial court to determine that Stone had established his domicile in Marshall County in 2013. Stone has provided “absolute proof, subject to no contingencies, that he will meet the qualifications on or before the date of the general or special election at which he could be elected.” Miss.Code Ann. § 23-15-299(7) (Rev.2007). We therefore affirm the decision of the Circuit Court of the First Judicial District of Hinds County.
¶ 34. Given the necessity for a quick and final disposition of the instant appeal, under the Court’s authority to suspend the rules pursuant to Rule 2(c) of the Mississippi ' Rules of Appellate Procedure, no Rule' 40 Motion for Rehearing or Rule 27 Motion for Reconsideration will be allowed, and this judgment is deemed final in all respects. The Clerk is directed to issue the mandate immediately.
¶ 35. AFFIRMED.
