Alabama officials on Thursday approved legislation to ensure President Joe Biden<\/a> will appear on the state\u2019s November ballot, mirroring accommodations the state made four years ago for then-President Donald Trump.<\/p>\n

The House of Representatives voted 93-0 for the legislation. Republican Gov. Kay Ivey signed the bill into law the same day, a spokeswoman said.<\/p>\n

“This is a great day in Alabama when in a bipartisan manner, we passed this legislation to ensure that President Joe Biden gains access to the ballot in Alabama,” Democratic state Sen. Merika Coleman, the bill’s sponsor, said. The Republican-dominated Alabama Legislature approved the bill without a dissenting vote.<\/p>\n

ALABAMA LAWMAKERS EYE GAMBLING COMPROMISE AS LEGISLATIVE SESSION NEARS ITS END<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

The issue of Biden\u2019s ballot access has arisen in Alabama and Ohio because the states\u2019 early certification deadlines fall before the Democratic National Convention begins on Aug. 19. Republican secretaries of state warned that Biden might not appear on state ballots.<\/p>\n

“Joe Biden will be on the ballot in all 50 states. Election after election, states across the country have acted in line with the bipartisan consensus and taken the necessary steps to ensure the presidential nominees from both parties will be on the ballot,” the Biden campaign said in a statement.<\/p>\n

Alabama has one of the earliest candidate certification deadlines in the country, which has caused difficulties for whichever political party has the later convention date that year.<\/p>\n

Trump faced the same issue in Alabama<\/a> in 2020. The Republican-controlled Alabama Legislature passed legislation to change the certification deadline for the 2020 election to accommodate the date of the GOP convention.<\/p>\n

“This is nothing new. We just need to fix this so the president can be on the ballot, just like our nominee can be on the ballot,” Republican House Speaker Pro Tem Chris Pringle said during the brief debate.<\/p>\n

The Alabama legislation will defer the state\u2019s certification deadline from 82 days before the general election<\/a> to 74 days to accommodate the date of the Democrats\u2019 nominating convention.<\/p>\n

Litigation was almost a certainty if Alabama Republicans had declined to grant Biden ballot access after making accommodations in the past for GOP nominees. The Biden campaign asked Alabama to accept provisional certification, saying that has been done previously in Alabama and other states. Alabama Secretary of State Wes Allen said he would not accept provisional certification because he didn\u2019t think he had the authority to do so.<\/p>\n

In Ohio, the state elections chief has said the Republican-led Legislature has until Thursday to approve an exemption to the state\u2019s 90-day rule, which sets this year\u2019s ballot deadline at Aug. 7. No bill appears to be forthcoming, but leaders of both parties haven\u2019t entirely ruled one out. The state House and Senate both have voting sessions scheduled for Wednesday.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
