WASHINGTON(April 15, 2024)— Former President Donald Trump isn’t the only candidate facing potential ballot eligibility issues. The Associated Press reported, “President Joe Biden’s reelection campaign is wrangling with Republican-dominated state governments in Ohio and Alabama to assure he is listed on their fall ballots, as once-mundane procedural negotiations get caught up in the nation’s fractious politics.” Both states have upcoming deadlines for the DNC to have a candidate on the ballot.
