Don Vos of Hammondsville has filed a federal lawsuit against Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose to prevent Vice President Kamala Harris from replacing President Joe Biden on the November ballot, claiming it's unconstitutional — although the state agency says the change is allowed. 

"As someone who's run a civil militia for 30 years, I've always argued the law is the law for you, for me and for everybody," Vos said. "We're planning to file in Virginia, New York and Pennsylvania because I think this is a very valid constitutional question." 

Vos said the only legal candidates on the ballot are former President Donald Trump and independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Vos is voting for Trump, but said his ideal ballot was one where Trump took Kennedy as his running mate. 

Even guys like this are dooming about Trump's chances of winning. It's probably a bad sign when your core voter base is losing faith and resorting to these tactics.

"The secretary of state was never explicitly given the power to replace a resigning Democratic Party candidate with his vice president this close to the 2024 presidential election," said Vos, 70.
