Ballotpedia has a very detailed explanation of how it would work.

You should read your own source. This is basically saying that if Republicans allow it to happen the name could be changed. Talk about naive.
i'm pretty confident you are not correct that it's too late; in any case, chill out a bit

Your link says Biden may not be on the Ohio ballot.
Yes, that's correct. The article is from a month ago, where Ohio was trying to keep Biden off of the ballot due to DNC / state procedural bullshit.
Swap the candidate for someone else and surprise Pikachu when red states refuse to print them on the ballot.
A. No need for name calling
B. It says there might be lawsuits and contests, not that the GOP has to allow it to happen. From the article:
Please point to the place where I name called someone.
You called them naive.
That's is not calling someone a name. Ffs. That is a descriptor.
"You are being naive"
Is not the same as
"Dumbass"
Still an insult, which falls under name calling in my book
Telling someone that they are being naive is not an insult. You should be old enough to understand that by this point in your life.
Telling someone when they are being naive when they don't agree with you is an insult. It is meant to dismiss them with a hand wave.
You may find it insulting, but that doesn't mean it's incorrect and it most certainly is not name-calling.
If it is a red state, then they could simply refuse. You do realize that there were a couple of states that were trying to keep Biden off of the ballot using the existing deadlines as a method, right???

Not only is that old, it's also a FoxNews article.
It is 1 months old. It's also true. The DNC had to pull some fast changes in order to make it happen.
FOR BIDEN.
Do you want to rest on the good will of the politicians in red states for that "trust me bro" guarantee that your new candidate will be on the ballot?
Yes, and those issue are resolved. Ohio passed legislation to push the date out and Alabama accepted a resolutution saying they would certify Biden. If the red states can refuse anyone, then they would just refuse Biden to begin with. There are legislative deadlines for these things, and all but one is after the DNC, so they would have to sue on very shakey ground. An article from a month does not prove that, it just means the source is behind or did not update the article.
For BIDEN.
Exactly what do you think is going to happen when you try to swap in someone else? The Republicans are known for acting in good faith. I'm sure nothing bad would happen.
