Despite internal protests and concerns about Biden's performance, the decision aims to ensure ballot access and avoid litigation.
Ohio's top election official, Secretary of State Frank LaRose, has warned that President Joe Biden might not be able to appear on the state's ballot in November due to a conflict between the Democratic National Convention's timing and Ohio law, which requires presidential candidates to be nominated by 7 August, 90 days before the general election.

A man who lost his job and home after using his 401(k) investments to support his family during financial difficulties is wondering if he has a claim to his wife's $200,000 inheritance. In Ohio, where they reside, marital assets are divided fairly but not necessarily equally. Inheritance is considered separate property unless it is commingled with marital assets. The man would likely have had to give up 50% of his property in a divorce, assuming it was purchased during the marriage. It is advised not to use inheritance money for regular spending and to keep it separate to prove its separate nature. The man may also need to consider alimony payments and other legal costs in the divorce.
