Constitutionally speaking,
I have often wondered what would happen if:
in between the convention and the election,
a party’s candidate met with his demise, naturally or otherwise.
For instance, what would happen if a candidate for president
were killed in a plane crash the night before election day?
Is that why we do not “really” got to the polls to elect a president,
but actually we elect “electors” who must then elect a president?
The Rats would insist that the law be disregarded just so they could have a candidate.
Hard to believe? Just look at what happened in the New Jersey governor’s race a few years ago when the Rat candidate died.
