Why it's hard for the Democrats to find a replacement for Benden can Kamala Harris compete

The American President Joe Biden's performance in the debate over the upcoming presidential election, held Thursday, has prompted several dilemmas within his party, if a new name should be found before the November race.

There is no evidence that Biden is willing to end the race, and it's almost impossible for the Democrats to find a replacement unless he gives up.

Delegates Linked to the Biden Name

Each region in the United States has only held preliminary elections. Under the rules of the Democrats, delegates who have won Beden must now support the Convention, which will be held in the coming weeks, unless he decides to leave the race.

Beden has given no indication that he plans to act that way, and has told supporters in Atlanta shortly after the debate is over, “Let's continue the work”.

Biden campaign spokeswoman Lauren Hitt has been even clearer, saying Friday that “naturally he will not give up”.

The conventions and rules to be determined by political parties themselves.

The National Democratic Committee may meet before the Convention opens on August 19th, and change the way things are going to flow, but something like that is unlikely to happen, since Biden is also targeting a White House mandate.

Under the current rule: the “delegations selected at the national convention, which have pledged a presidential candidate, must reflect consent to the one for which” has been selected.

Can Kamala Harris Beden be replaced?

US Vice President Kamala Harris will compete with Beden, but that does not mean she can replace him in the race for president.

Biden, too, cannot make the decision for Harris to replace him if he decides to leave the race.

The National Democratic Convention will be held in Chicago, but the party has said it will organise a virtual meeting to officially nominated Beden before the physical procedures are launched.

The exact date of this virtual appointment has not yet been set.

If Biden decides to abandon the election race, Harris will most likely enter the race to replace him.

If such a scenario is created, then she, along with other candidates, should lobby for the delegates of each American region to win their support in the Convention.

This has not happened to the Democrats since 1960 when John F. Kennedy and Lyndon B. Johnson has been competing for votes at that year's democratic Convention in Llos Angloes.

Who else could race for president from among the Democrats?

In addition to the vice president, other figures of the Democrats who have supported Biden for this year's race have shown their ambition for elections in the future, including California Governor Gavin Newsom, Michigen Governor Gretchen Whitmer, Pennsylvania Mayor Josh Shapiro, of Illinois, J. B. Prisker and California lawmaker at the U.S. Congress, Ro Khanna.

But there are other figures that have competed against Beden in the past, but can compete again, including Bernie Saunders of Vermont, Elizabeth Warren from Massachusetts and Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota, as well as American Transport Secretary Pete Buttigeg.

If Biden leaves the race unexpectedly, conservative groups have suggested they will file charges, questioning the legality of the democratic candidate's name in the ballot for elections.

However, Elaine Kamarck, senior policy researcher for governance at the Brookings Institute in Washington, which has written a book on the process of nominating an American president, has said that courts have been relatively away from preliminary elections, as long as the parties in the race have done nothing contrary to the Constitution, as has the violation of a voter's will on racial grounds.

The constitution clearly defines this issue as totally partying”, Camarck said in an interview before the debate.

“The question of nominating someone to represent a political party is the question of that political party”. / REL
