Ohio's Secretary of State, Frank LaRose, has warned that President Joe Biden may be left off the November ballot due to legal technicalities. This situation has prompted Ohio Governor Mike DeWine to call for a special legislative session to address the issue. The Ohio GOP is working to pass legislation to rectify the situation, despite intraparty divisions. The controversy arose after Democrats violated election laws, leading to Biden's potential exclusion. The proposed legislation also aims to close a loophole that allows foreign billionaires to fund issue campaigns. LaRose discussed the issue with Steve Bannon on the WarRoom, noting the annoying busywork this has created for Democrats.
