I don't believe that's correct. Once certified to take office, the death of the President elect is treated as the death of the President in office. So Kamala would take the office.
It would just be the vice president elect that takes over. I agree Biden has dementia and doesn't look good at all if he won kamala would be president.
I'm saying "if" he won I think the vice president would become president on Jan 20. I think we all know Biden lost. There's still a ton Trump can do to turn the election around.
Seriously idk. Rumors are his inauguration will not be public or at the white house. He has supposedly hired his own security ( not using secret service). All sounds kinda odd.
I looked this up, because I had a similar question. (I.e.: Biden is forced to step down due to criminal activities before the election is decided.)
I discovered there is literally no historical, legal precedent.
The best the Constitutional lawyers could come up with is that it falls to the individual states. Each would have to decide if they recognize the VP as the presidential candidate.
Once the votes are certified, which they technically are, the 20th Amendment Section 3 applies to both the current President and the certified President elect.
Trump would win by default I believe.

He isn't certified president elect. Votes haven't been counted.
I wasn't implying he was. I was answering the hypothetical question using Biden and Kamala.
Obviously, he's not getting certified.

No, he hasn't been verified as president elect by congress yet

how?
No worries. Biden was a presidential candidate. President Trump is president elect and he is perfectly healthy.
well say biden is president elect and he dies before inauguration day but after Jan 5, what would happen.
Seriously idk. Rumors are his inauguration will not be public or at the white house. He has supposedly hired his own security ( not using secret service). All sounds kinda odd.
He's not the president elect.
2020 has shown that stealing an election is still possible

If not enough do, the VP is out.
Kamala would go to President and Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi would be transitioned into the VP role
but they aren't officially president.

but which vp
They are only state-certified, not officially certified by the US legislature, which happens on the 6th.
They replace him with the Hillary look-a-like.
It would mean that Biden CONCEDED and Trump won by a LOT!
biden conceded his life
