Ohio's Top Election Official Warns of Potential Hurdles for Biden's General Election Ballot

Ohio's Secretary of State Frank LaRose warned that the Democratic National Convention's timing may prevent President Joe Biden from appearing on the state's general election ballot, as it falls after the state's deadline to declare a candidate. LaRose suggested two potential solutions: moving up the nominating convention or creating an exemption to the statutory requirement through state legislation. The Biden campaign and Ohio Democratic Party have not yet responded to the issue.
