A positive bipartisan development

Paul Kane of The Washington Post tweets about a new bill, jointly sponsored by Rep. Rodney Davis and Rep. Abigail Spanberger, to deal with the problem of a presidential candidate dying during critical time periods in the Electoral College process. This is an issue that John Fortier and Rick Pildes, among others, have written about previously (including when then-President Trump was hospitalized with Covid). It will be worth watching what happens to this bill in Congress (and while we are on this topic, we should keep watching for the possibility of much-need bipartisan reform to the Electoral Count Act).
