Mike DeWine (R-OH) is calling a rare special session of the Ohio General Assembly next Tuesday to pass legislation that will ensure President <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/joe-biden\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title>Joe Biden<\/a> is on the state\u2019s 2024 ballot. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cOhio is running out of time to get Joe Biden, the sitting President of the United States, on the ballot this fall,\u201d the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/republican\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title>Republican<\/a> governor said. \u201cFailing to do so is simply unacceptable. This is ridiculous. This is (an) absurd situation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ohio\u2019s deadline to certify a candidate\u2019s name on the ballot is 90 days before the general election, making this year\u2019s ballot deadline fall on Aug. 7. However, the Democratic National Convention, where Biden will be nominated, will be held Aug. 19- 22. <\/p>\n<p>Ohio\u2019s Senate had passed a bill addressing the issue by allowing certification 74 days before the election, but the House adjourned before taking up any version of the bill. <\/p>\n<p>Lawmakers had until May 9 to come up with a solution, but now Secretary of State Frank LaRose said next Wednesday is the absolute deadline. <\/p>\n<p>The state legislature\u2019s failure to properly address the issue of Biden being left off the ballot is wrapped up in a partisan battle to keep foreign money out of state ballot campaigns. The fight comes a year after money tied to a Swiss billionaire helped lead a successful effort to enshrine abortion rights in the state\u2019s constitution.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><strong>CLICK HERE TO READ MORE FROM THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>DeWine said during the special session that lawmakers will be able to pass a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/one-word-in-your-state-constitution-could-open-up-your-elections-to-foreign-nationals\/\" title=\"A Single Word in Your State Constitution Could Allow Foreign Nationals to Participate in Your Elections\">bill banning foreign nationals<\/a> from contributing to Ohio ballot measures.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe agree with the Governor.
