>Was sollte Trump denn da machen können?
Finde den X-Post dazu nicht mehr, aber ChatGPT wirft ähnliches raus wenn ich nach dem Prozess und Challenges frage. Da kann schon einiges von der Gegenseite gerichtlich in die Wege geleitet werden, wenn kurz vor der Wahl Kandidaten ausgetauscht werden. Es ist vermutlich einfacher, wenn Joe Biden aus gesundheitlichen Gründen zurücktreten müsste.
Replacement Process
Party Rules: Each major political party has its own rules for replacing a nominee. For the Democratic Party, the Democratic National Committee (DNC) has the authority to replace a candidate under certain circumstances, such as withdrawal, incapacity, or death. The DNC would convene to select a new nominee, often through a vote of the committee members.
State Ballot Deadlines: Replacement is also subject to state ballot deadlines. If a candidate is replaced late in the election cycle, the new candidate may face challenges getting their name on the ballot in all states, depending on how close it is to Election Day.
Electoral College: If a candidate is replaced after ballots are printed or after voters have cast their votes, the decision could fall to the Electoral College. Electors could be instructed by their party on how to vote, but this varies by state.
Legal and Practical Issues
Timing: The closer to the election a candidate is replaced, the more complicated the process becomes. Deadlines for ballot changes and early voting periods vary by state, potentially creating logistical and legal challenges.
Voter Confusion: Replacing a candidate close to the election could lead to confusion among voters who have already voted or are unaware of the change.
Legal Challenges: Any change in the candidate might be subject to legal challenges, particularly from opponents who may argue about the fairness or legality of the replacement process.
