According to state election law, the ballot for the general election hasn't been set yet, which means Biden's name on it is not yet set in stone. He'll have to receive his party's nomination in order for that to happen.
A candidate could, theoretically, bow out after they're certified to go on the ballot and after ballots have been printed with their name on them. When asked what would happen in that situation, the secretary of state's office deferred to a previous statement: Candidates certified on Aug. 29 will appear on the general election ballot.
"It gets much dicier once the nomination has been transmitted and there's the potential for litigation to try to make a change," he said.
