1. By then there should only be one name

But if not, I'm not sure of the process. If I find something I'll post it.

Good question.

Here's your answer:

receive nominations from the floor for the Democratic candidate for the Office of
President of the United States in the following manner:
a. Requests to nominate a presidential candidate shall be in writing and shall have
affixed thereto the written approval of the proposed nominee and the name of the
individuals who shall be recognized to make the nominating and seconding
speeches on behalf of a presidential candidate and shall be delivered to the

6:00 p.m. of the day preceding the day designated for the commencement of
presidential nominations.
b. Each such request must be accompanied by a petition indicating support for the
proposed nominee signed by delegates representing not less than 300 or more
than 600 delegate votes, not more than 50 of which may come from one (1)
delegation. A delegate may not sign more than one (1) nominating petition for
president and for vice president.
c. The order for nominating presidential candidates shall be determined by the
National Chairperson of the Democratic National Committee, the Permanent
Chair of the Convention and each presidential candidate, or his or her authorized
representative, who qualifies to be nominated pursuant to this section.
