Sure, the Demos can put another person on the ticket as P or VP. BUT. The ballots are already printed, out there, and coming in. Heck, I voted today. Shucks. Looks like I wasted my vote for Joe and Kam (Kidding, folks, just kidding. Please put down the flamethrowers).

To the point. They gotta elect Joe. Or maybe a write-in (right? Right). Tell me how many people are going to flock to the polls when the rest of this story breaks?

Here’s an insight that just occurred to me. The Biden campaign caved far too easily here with that admission to an “informal meeting.”

Rudy has other info, more proof. Maybe photos of dad and the Russian on the computer along with his selfie porn. Hunter warned them that more was coming.

Guess they’re going to have ride this one out.

Technically, we're not voting for the candidate -- we're voting for a slate of Electors who will vote for the candidate when the Electoral College meets. The candidate's name is there only as a proxy for the Electors.

This means that Biden can drop out and be replaced by someone else, and any ballots cast in his name can still be counted for the slate of Democrat Electors. Those Electors will then vote for whomever they want within state Electoral College pledge requirements.

No - they can't. It's too late for that.
