What happens if Biden dies before the next inauguration (see inside)?
What happens to the election if Biden dies before it?
-
With considerable time til the election
-
Not enough time to change the election
Assuming Biden wins on election day, what is the procedure at various stages throughout the election if Biden dies?
- After election day but before votes are counted
- Votes counted but not certified by Congress
- Certified but not inaugurated
- Any other stages I've missed

TBH because of his physical presentation at the debate. Yeah, it’s short-sighted, but welcome to the public thought process. Whatever is churned thru the latest 15 minute media cycle seems to be what they believe.
Doesn’t matter if he had a cold and was dosed up on NyQuil or whatever; his voice was weak, he stumbled over making coherent sentence multiple times, and he just had a blank, open-mouthed stare when between questions. I’ve had shitty colds and been drugged up with cold meds and I know that feel of being sore, exhausted, hoarse, and disconnected. You just want to go have a lie-down, not a public debate against a raging, insulting, narcissistic asshole. But it takes someone willing to understand all that and give Biden the benefit of the doubt.
There are far too many that start from the “old” part and just attribute everything possible to that which they find disagreeable.
And apparently that matters more than the blatant lies and non-answers coming from the other side. Gotta say, Americans do seem significantly dumber than the average world citizen.
Presumably what an American once said about Germans. It can happen anywhere with the right stream of propaganda.
And is actively happening. Sadly, most people will choose comfortable lies over hard truths.
yes, for estimating whether someone dies due to health condition, that health condition matters significantly more than someone else lying. 😜
Trump is 3 years younger. Biden may outlive him by 10 years for all we know.
he may. but the last debate strongly suggested otherwise. someone asked why do people think that biden will be first to die and this is why. because he seem in significantly worse shape.
he looked like he was going to die before the debate ends. i absolutely don't believe that, if elected, he will survive whole term.
(and that is ignoring the fact that having a pulse is quite low threshold for presidential candidate)
Don't know about you, but I vote for policy, not a person. But you do what a lot of Americans do, vote for a personality, and that's why Americans seem significantly dumber than the average world citizen.
i am not an american, but i can confirm for you that you seem significantly dumb to me.
if you see an error in any fact i stated, please point it out. i can't do anything about your emotions...
Your error: Voting for a person, not policy. There.
i meant error in facts, not your inability to understand topic of the discussion (this isn't discussion about policy), or the fact that i am not an american, so i am not voting for anything in us elections.
Did he have a cold, and cold medicine? I've not heard those things.

I can’t unpaywall the article. The assumption he’d take some kind of meds is my own.
Groups have been trying to push this message since the debate. It's not terribly effective for anyone who actually watched.
A cold and cold medicine don't account for the very clear confusion and sundowning the rest of us witnessed.
