The Ohio House is expected to vote on a bill that would fix a problem in state law that could keep Democratic President Joe Biden off the November ballot.

The bill would change the certification deadline to 74 days before the November 5 election. Currently, the law requires election officials to certify the ballot 90 days before the next election. Biden wouldn’t be certified until the Democratic National Convention meets 12 days after that deadline.

House Speaker Jason Stephens (R-Kitts Hill) said this bill fixes that issue.

“It changes the reporting deadline from….to 74 days and it enables the notification to be a lot more flexible whether it is email or whatever that case is. So this just gives the flexibility so the secretary of state can follow the law and everybody can have their convention and we can get this taken care of,” Stephens said.

“So hopefully this will take care of that issue without much fanfare,” Stephens said.

House Minority Leader Allison Russo (D-Upper Arlington) said she’s optimistic.

“I’m glad to see this bipartisan effort to come to the table. I think this is common sense. It fixes an issue for both parties, an issue that we’ve had to fix in the past,” Russo said.

Senate President Matt Huffman (R-Lima) has said in the past that Biden would be on the Ohio ballot but didn’t specify exactly how that would happen.

The 90-day deadline was created in a 2010 law. Legislators made changes in law to temporarily change the deadline for the elections in 2012 and 2020, because both Republicans and Democrats had conventions scheduled for after the deadline.

A woman who fell from the stands to her death during a graduation ceremony at Ohio State University last weekend has been identified as a Georgia resident, authorities announced Tuesday. The Franklin County Coroner’s Office said Larissa Brady, 53, was pronounced dead at the scene just outside Ohio Stadium in Columbus on Sunday. The Columbus Dispatch, citing coroner documents, reports that the death is being investigated as an apparent suicide.

An investigation continues into how Brady fell from the stadium, which the school says is 136 feet tall, to the pavement below. However, Ohio State police do not suspect foul play and believe the fall was not accidental, university spokesperson Ben Johnson said Tuesday. It happened around midday, near the stadium’s Bell Tower, as the last graduates were filing into the stadium. According to the coroner’s office, Brady entered the stadium with her husband and 12-year-old son but they lost sight of her after she said she wanted to move higher. The coroner’s office said Brady had mental health issues and had attempted suicide twice before, the Dispatch reports.

According to the commencement program, Brady’s daughter was among those graduating. The commencement continued without mention of what happened, but some students and others at the ceremony were visibly upset after the fall, the AP reports. A spokesman said the university has contacted all graduates and staff who volunteered at graduation to offer counseling services.

The woman who plunged to her death from the stands of the Ohio State University commencement ceremony over the weekend was identified as a graduate’s parent — and her death was likely a suicide, officials announced Tuesday.

The Franklin County Coroner’s Office said Larissa Brady, 53, of Georgia was pronounced dead after falling 136 feet from the Ohio Stadium in Columbus on Sunday. She was identified by her fingerprints.

Police are still investigating the tragedy, but believe it was “not accidental.” Foul play, however, is not suspected, university spokesperson Ben Johnson confirmed to The Post.

“Ohio State is grieving the death of Larissa Brady, a family member of one of our graduates. Our hearts go out to her family and friends during this exceptionally difficult time,” Johnson said.

Brady’s daughter was among those graduating, the Columbus Dispatch reported, citing the commencement program.

The horror unfolded near the stadium’s Bell Tower around 12:30 p.m. as the final graduates filed into the stadium.

Some students witnessed the suspected suicide and were visibly shaken, but the ceremony continued without interruption.

The commencement speakers did not mention the incident, and it is not clear whether Brady’s daughter knew about her mother’s death until after she crossed the stage.

At the conclusion of the ceremony, the newest alum reportedly walked past the scene of the tragedy, which was still cordoned off with yellow police tape.

OSU is offering counseling to those in the community in need of support, Johnson emphasized, adding that those experiencing suicidal thoughts should reach out to crisis hotlines.
