In May, the D.N.C. changed its process to nominate Mr. Biden to accommodate an Aug. 7 deadline to place him on the ballot in Ohio. Lawmakers in that state later passed legislation to push the deadline back to the end of August, but it does not take effect until Sept. 1. The Biden campaign and the D.N.C. aimed to have Mr. Biden’s nomination locked up before Aug. 7 to avoid the possibility of a legal challenge by Ohio Republicans.
