Deputy SoFA must be appointed by the SoFA and approved by the President. So no go on a deputy unless Earl makes a brief appearance.

In the event of a confirmation hearing, the Senate could vote to temporarily waive the OSPR, but that would take an extra vote, which could take too long.

Mr. President, this is an emergency.  We have an election scheduled 24 hours from now, and no SoFA in sight.  Please make an emergency appointment.

Under the current law, we have a "line of succession" of sorts, but its less structured than an actual line.

Earlier the President cited Section 9 of the Consolidated Electoral System Reform Act, which states that he can take control of the voting booth whenever the SoFA is unable to do it himself. It could be more structured, though.

I will be traveling to Europe after Christmas to meet with European heads of state and the new EU President Herman Van Rompuy.

Let me know if you'd like me to come along Mr. President.

IMO, the President may designate the SoEA, SoIA, AG, VP or himself to administer the election (or at least to open the booth).

An option that may be open to the President is to seek a confirmation of a SoFA in time to take over from the above designated officer in time to close, tally and certify the results.

It's not just your opinion. The law is clear that Lief can do this. He just needs to do it.

That is also clear than he needs to appoint a new SoFA.
