UNPRECIDENTED: So what happens if TRUMP DIES, 2 or 3 days before

[Kennah]

50. Therein probably lies the answer

If Trump drops dead, it's likely the GOOP would not show up and elect a GOOPer--either Trump or a write-in.

I remember in 1990 when incumbent PG County (MD) Council Member Tony Cicoria was indicted and then convicted. A write-in campaign was organized for then Tacoma Park Mayor Stephen Del Giudice to succeed Cicoria, and he won. I considered this to have been a big deal at the time even though the Republican challenger, J. Lee Ball, to put it mildly, was a strange bird. Local media provided a lot of information about write-in votes and what the State and County Dems were asking voters to do.

A write-in for President, last minute, seems quite unlikely.

I suspect the GOOP would try legal maneuvers, but I don't see anything under the Constitution or law that applies, but that doesn't mean they won't try.

In the end, Biden would be re-elected as President if Trump were to drop dead 3 days before the 2024 election.
