Every single comment is addressing changing who is on the ballot (replace, withdraw, remove). Biden is not on the ballot anywhere yet, because he has not yet been nominated. That will happen at the Democratic Convention (or a remote vote at some earlier time). Once the party formally names its nominee, the clock will start ticking in some states.

All of this was discussed ad nauseum earlier, in connection with the date of the convention. The last state fell into place when Ohio passed legislation in a special session to change the date for a party to put its candidate on the ballot.
