Here's how Kamala Harris' successor as vice president would be chosen if President Biden steps down
Fox News
If President Biden were to step down as commander in chief today, there would be a constitutional process to fill the vacant vice presidency.
According to Article II, Section 1 of the Constitution, the vice president becomes president if the president is unable to discharge duties due to death, resignation, removal from office or other reasons. So, if Biden were to step down as president today, Vice President Kamala Harris would be sworn in as the 47th president and serve out the remainder of his term. Aubrie Spady is a Writer for Fox News Digital.
If a vice president is promoted to president, the vice presidency is vacated.
