When you vote for president, you're not actually voting for president and vice president. You are voting presidential electors pledged to vote for the ticket of their political party. The people on the ticket can be changed by the national committee of the party any time up to the day that the Electoral College votes.
There is precedent. It happened in 1872 when the Democrats had to replace their presidential candidate, Horace Greely, after Election Day due to Greeley's death.

Actually it is a lot more complicated than simply “replacing” the Democratic ticket.
Each state has their own rules, except those states with no rules at all!
It would be a nightmare of epic proportions.
