President Joe Biden recently showcased a stumbling and confused performance on the CNN debate stage on Thursday. It threw back the curtain on an issue that his campaign, the White House, and allies have long attempted to convince the public isn’t true, that he’s too old. The party must weigh whether to stick with Biden or take the nuclear option of convincing him to step aside and finding another nominee to take on Donald Trump.
It been noted that both publicly and privately, prominent Democrats, commentators, and surrogates have admitted that it’s time to have some hard conversations about the viability of Biden’s candidacy based on his performance on Thursday.
Former Democratic Senator Claire McCaskill told MSNBC, “Joe Biden had one thing he had to do tonight, and he didn’t do it.”
Well, according to Charlie Kirk and the Daily Mail, it’s already too late to remove Joe Biden from the Ballot in Two states (soon to be Three states).
This is big. It’s likely already too late to remove Joe Biden from the ballot.
WISCONSIN — It’s already too late to remove Joe Biden from the ballot.
NEVADA—After tonight, the fourth Friday in June, it will be too late to remove Joe Biden.
GEORGIA—Only a few weeks remain before it will be too late to remove Biden from the ballot.
From DailyMail:
The Heritage Oversight project has set their sights on three contentious swing states where they believe taking Biden off the Democratic ticket would not allow anyone else to replace him: Georgia, Nevada and Wisconsin.
Wisconsin does not allow withdrawal from the ballot for any reason besides death.
In Nevada, no changes can be made to the ballot after 5 p.m. on the fourth Friday in June of an election year or ‘a nominee dies or is adjudicated insane or mentally incompetent.’
If Biden were to withdraw less than 60 days before the election Georgia his name will remain on the ballot but no votes will be counted.
In Texas, the two party’s nominees have until the 74th day before the election to withdraw from the ballot. Some states, like South Carolina, do not allow candidates to withdraw for political reasons.
For the record, that is 32 Electoral votes: Nevada has 6 electoral votes, Wisconsin has 10 electoral votes, and Georgia has 16 electoral votes.
