In the event we pass the Democratic Convention (19 August to 23 August), and something happens to President Biden....to say he's out as a candidate (health issues one might assume)....what happens?
Well....the Democrats are 'empowered' to fill the empty seat, and it does NOT have to be the VP moving up. In this case, the party chair would have a talk with with Democratic governors and House/Senate leadership.
In this scenario, I believe it's entirely possible that both the President/VP seats would change out.
States in a position to say 'no'? There are two states which have ironclad rules about changing the names after mid-August. So unless lawsuits occur.....there would be two states denying the name change.
The Republican? If Trump were knocked out? the Republican National Committee has a rule offering a 2nd national convention or itself (the RNC) could select a new candidate.
Am I suggesting an Oswald-like scenario? No....but if you asked me....how many FBI or CIA Oswalds currently exist in the US....I would laugh and suggest over 100 easily.
If you suddenly crossed both Joe and Kam off the list in mid-September through this scenario? In a matter of just a month....Joe would be forgotten, and Kam acting as President....would get almost zero media attention.
Just a curious thing to think about.

I read your '2nd' as 'tuned'.
A 'tuned' convention.
