IUBillsFan Posted October 5, 2004 Posted October 5, 2004 one of the candidates died...Who runs for each party? Would Edwards or Cheany get the nod? I don't know why I thought about this but I didn't know if there was policy in place.

tennesseeboy Posted October 5, 2004 Posted October 5, 2004 I suspect that the parties would have rules to cover that eventuality. I don't think it would automatically go to the vice-presidential candidate (ironically the vice president would automatically become president but would not automatically become the Republican nominee?). Interesting question...hope someone reviews the rules and gets back to us!
