DeWine signs to ensure Biden on Ohio ballot
Gov. Mike DeWine signed measures to keep President Joe Biden on the November ballot and to ban foreign nationals from contributing to state ballot campaigns. The steps, tied to Aug 31 effect, come after a special session led by Republicans. The change widens foreign national definitions to include legal permanent residents. The Democratic National Committee plans a virtual roll call to nominate Biden, while Ohio House Democrats criticize the move as unduly tied to the ballot law. Potential impact spans redistricting, minimum wage, police immunity, and voting rights issues on the November ballot.
