President Joe Biden’s withdrawal Sunday from the presidential race could result in legal challenges up to the election in November, election law experts said.
Among those potential legal actions are challenges to who appears on the Democratic ticket on ballots in some states — although election experts seemed to agree Democrats would be able to have their nominee listed — and the fate of nearly $100 million in Biden campaign cash.
Derek Muller, a law professor at Notre Dame University who specializes in election law, wrote on social media Sunday that there is a “high degree of uncertainty right now. And the longer the process of choosing a new nominee takes, the more legal uncertainty we’ll see in this election.”
