Are we sure that's how it would work? If president elect (a real one) is killed, it defaults to the other runner?
If Biden were to die before being sworn in the VP is not elevated to President and sworn in.
"Democratic National Committee (DNC) would have the ability to name a replacement candidate and pressure the electors currently committed to Biden to support them instead. Presumably, although not necessarily, the new candidate would be Biden’s vice president Kamala Harris."
They would need to go back to the electoral college to have them recast ballots for Harris and I bet right now that would not happen.
Pretty sure thats exactly what would happen. Why would they not certify camel after just getting through certifying biden?
Why certify camel when they can just certify Hillary? "Given the gravity of the current situation in our country and around the world, Vice President Harris has requested that an experienced Stateswoman such as Secretary Clinton would best serve the needs of The United States and our allies around the world."
God dammit - I threw up a bit in my mouth typing that.
well, sure. I thought the post was implying there was a chance it would be somebody good.
