What is succession order for president-elect and VP-elect? Hate to ask, but what happens if both die after the election but before assuming office? Could Biden, by executive order remain in office longer and schedule a new election down the road? Or, would the speaker of the house assume the presidency after Biden's term ends? Could the Supreme Court be asked to declare the losers of Nov 8 as the POTUS and VP by default?

If something were to happen to the President or Vice President-elect, the Speaker of the House would become the new President. If Kamala were to win and then she and Tim Walz were then executed, then I pray to God that Byron Donalds becomes the President through him being elected speaker on January 3rd.
I would absolutely love Byron Donald’s as speaker!!
