I expressed very directly my concern about the early vote, the delegate recalls.
In June, Ohio Gov.
Mike DeWine signed legislation extending Ohios deadline to accommodate the conventions timing.

It also, coincidentally, helps shut down any talk about replacing Joe Biden as the nominee.
Do they only care about protecting President Biden and their own jobs?
(Trump himself feels the same way,Rolling Stoneis told.)
I think a lot of us observed that the president was aging throughout the course of his first term.
But during the debate, it was worse than most of us had seen before, Bottcher says.
Another delegate expressed similar sentiment: The debate was a defining moment.
Ive seen him in person a lot recently, and had some concerns.
That person adds, But I must say, Im never concerned about his integrity.
Im never concerned about his policies.
Im never concerned about the team around him.
Those are all A+.
He thinks such an exercise would be empowering for delegates.
Oh, so unpredictable.
Dame supported Zogbys proposal, but he recognizes that time is running low to replace Biden on the ticket.
Delegates Are Democracy is one campaign reaching out to delegates in the name of providing such information.
Chris Dempsey, a former staffer at the Democratic Party of Massachusetts who served in Gov.
Deval Patricks administration, is involved with the effort.
Dempsey declined to identify any other parties involved.
I believe that the president will step aside.
I think theres too much momentum behind the effort to change the ticket.
And therestoo much money being held up.
He adds, Im just hoping that it happens sooner rather than later.
