You are incorrect. Alabama also had to move back their filing deadline to accommodate the DNC.
I’m not making an argument about the filing deadlines, just stating what the issue was. My only concern would be making sure the Democratic candidate is on every state ballot no matter what, even if only to help down ballot candidates.
I stand corrected - Alabama is apparently exactly like Ohio in this case. Both originally had filing deadlines that came before the DNC, and both passed legislation to extend the deadline.
Not sure how I missed that before, but thank you for pointing it out.
