    Do you think it is still open? Any new candidate is going to get “sorry, our state’s deadline has passed - we’ll remove Biden from the ballot, but can’t possibly register the new person” from some critical states, and the supreme court will rubber-stamp it.

    From Wikipedia: “Although the Ohio ballot access issue was resolved, the DNC has stated that it will continue with a virtual roll call vote [1-7 Aug] in order to avoid litigation from Republicans”.

      The two states that applied to both pushed back their deadlines explicitly to accommodate the Democratic National Convention - so yes, it’s still open.
