It is before the deadlines but just barely. Typically the candidate is known before the convention, so you already have enough signatures to get on the ballot in every state

It wasn't when they scheduled it. It was after Ohio's deadline. And major parties don't need signatures to put forward candidates.

Not in a general, no. They do in a primary though. In this case, you're right, the candidate would get on the ballot by the delegates voting
