"Dems' Dilemma: The Possibility of Replacing Biden as Nominee"

While there are provisions in the DNC Charter to replace the nominee in case of incapacitation or resignation, it is highly unlikely and would require Biden's consent. If Biden were to withdraw, it would create a free-for-all at the Democratic National Convention, and Vice President Kamala Harris would not automatically become the nominee. The process of replacing a nominee would be complex and filled with behind-the-scenes jockeying and public pressure campaigns.
