(c) The terms President-elect and Vice-President-elect as used in this Act shall mean such persons as are the apparent successful candidates for the office of President and Vice President, respectively, as ascertained by the Administrator following the general elections held to determine the electors of President and Vice President in accordance with title 3, United States Code, sections 1 and 2.

there needs to be changes so that there is not one person who can stop the country from going forward and do the business of the people. Moscow Mitch in the senate and this one in the GSA. No one person should be given that much power.
