I noticed it also gave a May 9th deadline to get a statutory exemption, so I went hunting

Seems likely he'll be on ballot

I don't want to minimize that this has to happen, but I do want to minimize anybody thinking that there's a snowball's chance in hell that this isn't going to happen," DeWine [Governor, R] said Wednesday. "The president's name is going to be on the ballot.

Buuuutt...

House leaders introduced a bipartisan proposal on Tuesday to put Biden on the ballot and prevent future scheduling conflicts. For 2028 and beyond, parties that couldn't meet the 90-day deadline would be allowed to certify candidates either 74 days before the election or within three days of their convention, whichever comes first.

But Senate Republicans pursued a different path, one that Democrats cast as a poison pill and refused to support. They folded a one-time deadline fix into a bill that would ban foreign citizens and U.S. residents with green cards from donating to ballot campaigns. It's already illegal for non-U.S. citizens to give money to candidates.

Democrats only have one passion in life and that's eating shit in easily winnable elections.

An unprecedented level of incompetence on the part of the Democratic Party

[-] [email protected] 11 points 2 months ago

Democracy is on the line in 2024!

So of course Biden and the DNC cannot be arsed to do the bare minimum requirements to get him on the ballot. Total clown show.

Would be hilarious if Trump wins the EC, and then also the popular vote but only because no Dem votes are counted in Ohio.

I don't understand all the mechanics of this system. But did they just overlook the dates? Nobody put it in the shared calendar?
