    Great Britain just had an entire election in 6 weeks. There is more than enough time.

      They aren’t the same country, though. Things like that are likely more common in the UK than in the US. It’s hard enough to vote here, yet alone if they pull the ol’ switcheroo on the candidate in just a month.

        A different name being on the ballot does not affect the difficulty associated with the voting process in any way. Your comment is less than a straw man, it’s a nothing-burger.

        orders of magnitude larger

        It is not even one order of magnitude larger.

        Great Britain population: ~67M

        1 order of magnitude larger = 670,000,000.

        USA population: ~336,000,000.

        USA also has much more than 6 weeks time to do it. And the US is quite a bit more adept than great Britain in the communications department. Kind of their strong suit, actually.
