    Sounds like the legal mechanism is that you need a certain threshold of support to be put on the ballot, but they carved out niche to just accept the nominee from the 2 parties with the understanding they would obviously meet the threshold of support.

      Right. So they can’t have already started printing out ballots before the Democratic party has actually nominated their candidate.
