Well, excuse me, but the Anonymous dude IS a dolt: they don’t have the ability to replace her on the ballot NOW.

If that’s his reasoning, someone needs to educate him quickly...or it’s all a fake and he’s just getting a moment of attention.

Hi Scott, actually the replacement on the ballot is largely misunderstood. None of us actuallly votes for the president and vice-president, we vote for electors who then vote in December, presumably for the candidates we specified. Anonymous information does line up with that but most people don't realize how the electoral college actually works. Either party could change their candidates for pres and vp anytime before the EC meets.

Actually, you could replace her after the election. Remember, you are voting for an elector, NOT the candidate.

The elector, while bound in several states, could vote for someone else with little risk to themselves.

So, technically, they could put someone up for election as late as Jan 5th, (when the votes are counted in DC.)
