The kid forwarded the e-mails to someone of authority in Congress with a comment:
"sick, sick, sick."
" . . .If the name of the new nominee is submitted after the certification of results of the preceding primary election, however, the ballots shall not be changed and the former party nominee's name will appear on the ballot. Any ballots cast for the former party nominee will be counted for the person designated by the political party to replace the former party nominee... '
The only people who won't be informed as to a replacement candidate will be those who vote straight party ticket and don't care. Their GOP votes will go for the replacement. The Independents will be fully informed of what is going on and those who are conservative will vote for the replacement.
I see no great threat to the seat If The GOP Moves Quickly And Replaces Him This Weekend.
