NEW: Biden Is Off the Ohio General Election Ballot

[Mountain Man]

It wouldn't be gaslighting if you knew you were gaslighted.

Perhaps that's why I said, "It has become almost impossible to gaslight the public into believing that things are better now than they were when President Trump was in the White House."

Actually, they're called battleground states because of the Electoral College Math. And the landscape is looking a lot different this time.

They're called battleground states because they could be won by either a Democrat or a Republican in a statewide election.

And yes, it's looking a lot closer this time than in 2020, in terms of electoral votes. But Biden won by a lot of electoral votes in 2020.

That seems like the best and most logical solution.

Those electoral college votes are in play BECAUSE the race is neck and neck there.

You are absolutely right, Stoic --- Biden is gonna win BIGTIME!!!!! Go Biden!!!!

Don't put words in my mouth. I've never said the election is going to be anything other than extremely close.

DNC plans to virtually nominate Biden ahead of convention amid Ohio ballot concerns

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.

For the sarcastically impaired the following is said in jest

That's not going to cause any problems with the more progressive wing at all.

Why does Ohio need names of candidates 3 months in advance anyway? Are the ballot papers being printed by daguerreotype or something?

So all the angst from certain liberals earlier in the thread was for nothing.

This would also seem to eliminate the possibility of the Democrats parachuting in a surprise replacement for Joe at the convention.
