21. My understanding

is that in florida, If you remove your name from the primary, you are removed from any GE ballots as well.

I have also heard it said that to be removed in FL, you have to quit the race. Or alternately that the state determines who to put on the ballot and does not take requests for removal.

And then there is the time factor, so at the time the pledges were signed, it may well have been too late to remove their names from FL anyhow, but I am less sure of that one.

Any one of those would explain why everyone was on the Florida ballot
