President Joe Biden's campaign may have to take legal action to ensure his name appears on Ohio's ballot this November after the state Legislature adjourned this week without passing what is typically an easy fix to a scheduling issue. Ohio state law stipulates that presidential candidates must be certified 90 days before the general election to secure a spot on the ballot. This year, the deadline falls on Aug. 7.
But the Ohio General Assembly adjourned on Wednesday after failing to find a legislative solution for the deadline conflict. Earlier this month, a bill to accommodate the Democrats' certification timeline stalled in the Legislature; state Senate Republicans attached a rider to ban foreign money in state ballot campaigns to the opposition of Democrats after the bill had passed, and the Republican state House speaker, Rep. Jason Stephens, declined to take up the measure.
