The Democratic National Committee’s rush to nominate President Joe Biden virtually is under attack from Democratic doubters who want to see someone else atop the party’s ticket.

While Ohio formerly wouldn’t allow Biden on the state’s ballot unless he was nominated before the state’s early August deadline, prompting the virtual nomination on Aug. 7, legislation has since been signed by Gov. Mike DeWine (R-OH) ensuring the president is on the ballot in November — making the virtual nominating process solely to declare Biden as the Democratic nominee earlier.
