The Democratic National Committee (DNC) is planning to virtually nominate President Biden ahead of the party’s convention after the Ohio state Legislature deadlocked on a fix last week to get the president on the ballot in November.

DNC Chair Jaime Harrison announced Democrats would be holding a virtual roll call to ensure Biden gets on the ballot in all 50 states — an announcement made on the same day Ohio state lawmakers returned to the Capitol for a special session to solve Biden’s ballot access issue. 

The Democratic National Committee (DNC) is preparing to nominate President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris as the Democratic Party nominees via virtual proceedings before Ohio’s Aug. 7 deadline, and before its in-person convention this summer in Chicago. 

Ohio requires its parties to certify presidential candidates at least 90 days before Election Day. The DNC won't certify Biden until its convention, which is scheduled for Aug. 19 – 75 days before the election.

President Joe Biden is set to not appear on Ohio’s presidential ballot in November, the state’s secretary of state confirmed.

In a letter to Ohio Democratic Chairwoman Liz Walters on Tuesday, Secretary of State Frank LaRose said, “Today, the Speaker of the Ohio House told members of the media there would not be a legislative solution,” adding he was “duty bound to instruct boards of elections to begin preparing ballots that do not include the Democratic Party’s nominees for president and vice President of the United States.”

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. campaign is beating ballot access expectations.

The campaign turned in more than twice the signatures needed to qualify for the ballot in Texas, which requires more than 100,000 signatures from registered voters.

Kennedy and his rookie campaign team’s ability to reach the requirement is an organizational feat — one they’re repeating in state after state.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s campaign submitted signatures Monday to the Texas Secretary of State’s office to have his name listed as a presidential candidate on the November general election ballot—as his campaign deploys an aggressive and laborious strategy to secure his place on ballots in all 50 states.

Kennedy Jr.’s campaign submitted to Texas election officials 245,572 signatures, more than twice as many as required, to secure ballot access for him and his running mate, Nicole Shanahan, his campaign said Monday.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced Monday he has enough signatures to make the presidential ballot in Texas, throwing yet another wrench into the Biden-Trump 2024 matchup.

The independent candidate turned in 245,572 signatures to the Texas secretary of state’s office — twice as many as required — after gathering them in just two months, his campaign said in a statement.

The Lone Star State has one of the toughest ballot requirements, with independent candidates being required to submit a petition with a minimum of 1% of the total votes in the last presidential election.

President Joe Biden may face eligibility issues on the Ohio ballot in November. At least that’s according to a letter from the Ohio Secretary of State’s office, which informed the state’s leading Democrats that this summer’s Democratic National Convention may take place too late for Biden to appear on the ballot on Election Day. The letter, first obtained by ABC News and made public Friday night, was sent to Ohio Democratic Party Chairwoman Liz Walters and other top Democrats in the state. Penned by Paul Disantis, the chief legal counsel...

President Joe Biden might need a law changed in order to appear on the Ohio ballot this November because of "an apparent conflict in Ohio law." The Aug. 19 Democrat National Committee Convention comes 12 days after the Aug. 7 Ohio deadline to make the November presidential election ballot, forcing the DNC to either move up the date of their nominating convention or push the Ohio legislature to to change the law to allow President Joe Biden make the Nov. 5 ballot. The revelation came in a Ohio GOP Secretary...

President Biden could face issues getting on the Ohio ballot for the general election over a scheduling conflict related to the timing of the Democratic National Convention. The Ohio Secretary of State’s office sent a letter to Ohio Democratic Chair Liz Walters on Friday asking for clarification of an “apparent conflict” in the state’s law regarding the deadline by which the party’s presidential nominee must be certified to Ohio’s Secretary of State’s office and Democratic National Committee’s (DNC) nominating process. The deadline to certify a party’s White House candidate in...
