Comment on What happens if Biden dies before the next inauguration (see inside)?

There’s actually a novel that describes the process and it actually depends on when it happens.

If Biden wins the election, but dies before the electoral college votes, it’s a free-for-all. The electoral college can vote for whoever they want.

If he dies AFTER the EC vote, but before it’s certified, there’s a different set of problems.

If he dies after the vote and the certification, the VP becomes President.
