1. Yes. It's required for every Special Security event

2. Who? After Joe, Kamala and Nancy, they're all Republicans.

4. We won't know until after for obvious reasons.

It’s said to be random and sometimes the President chooses. Hope he did not choose this time.

8. My question was, who could it be? What Democrat is in the line of succession?

And they do announce who the designated survivor is for the State of the Union, just not their location.

9. Thank you, what a relief. I was afraid that we would be putting

all our eggs in one basket.

Trump is conscienceless, the epitome of evil in human form, and he is capable of fomenting any unspeakably wicked act.

3. If so, Wikipedia doesn't have that person on its list yet.

List of designated survivors

The space for today at the bottom of the list is empty.

5. They don't announce it before hand for obvious reasons.

[Hugin]

6. Today, we're all DESIGNATED SURVIVORS.

We made it.

Democracy made it.

7. But, we will know later???

10. In another thread, someone noted that they didn't see Nancy Pelosi.

11. She would be the appropriate choice.

12. Nancy Pelosi is present at the Capitol,

so not her.

13. A senior senator, perhaps?
