IN Dem Misses The Deadline

National Journal.com ^ | Reid Wilson

[Toki]

Restaurant owner Tamyra d'Ippolito (D) has enough signatures to make the ballot in the race to replace Sen. Evan Bayh (D-IN), she told Hotline OnCall in a brief interview, but an official in a key district says she has failed to reach the threshold.

Ok, so saw on her facebook where the person with the three signatures said they turned them in for her for Marion county, where she is told she only got three signatures. here:http://www.facebook.com/pages/Tamyra-For-Senate/178606233224

She tried. I wish it would have worked. That would have been awesome.

[GeronL]

She should raise her prices out of spite

[kidd]

“D’Ippolito’s candidacy would have thrown a serious wrench in Dem hopes of keeping the seat. She would have prevented the state party from filling the vacancy with a candidate of their own, likely an experienced contender...

...GOPers, sensing an opportunity, mobilized in some places to help d’Ippolito make the ballot.”

The Red Baron did get his paper work in for his congressional seat (Friday). It was verified by the state today.

[GeronL]

hhmm... so they do have a candidate...

She can’t raise her prices, Hugo Chavez said so.

[digger48]

HA!!!!

The 7th is a rat infested hellhole....Marion counry...Andre Carsons district!!!!

The ‘Rats did this to her!!!!

[fortheDeclaration]

He hasn’t stepped down.

[Sybeck1]

Seems like the dems shafted this woman.

[Virginia Ridgerunner]

O.K., if the Red Baron is the Rat candidate, then put this example from last summer of his character front and center...

Baron Hill (IN-09): This Is My Town Hall Meeting. I Set the Rules.

Let Indiana think about what it might get if it actually elects this loser.

[Toki]

Wow.... I may not like this lady but this guy is just wow. He would have been eaten alive by the journalist in my college. He would fit in right at home in Washington. You know you could make the best attack ad on this alone with the atmosphere there is right now.

[hoosiermama]

Nothing verified on the Senate seat. ill’s paper work was for his congressional seat.

[pillut48]

Didn't someone post on FR the other day about Bayh's eligibility being suspect, because he'd listed his *home* address as some tax office building, a standalone in a parking lot somewhere? I remember doing a google search and seeing the picture of the office, and now, just a few days later, he's outtathere!

I wonder if there's some sort of connection, that Bayh got going while the going was good BEFORE something was exposed??

[freespirited]

Hill voted for porkulus and pelosicare. I just dont see him as a strong candidate for the RATS.

I call BS on that post.
1. ALL state/county offices were closed yesterday.
2. Some closed at noon on Friday.
3. Marion County's clerk office is not the only place where signatures can be turned in for that district.

Yeah I thought it was fishy too, like it was being set up so why I mentioned it, but it was today and this guy who gave it in (at 9:10 it’s posted on something that only been up five hours) seems to be the real deal (Professor, dug him up on ratemyprofessor due to fluency in Hebrew, not the same name but close and teaches in an Indiana Univeristy outlier in Bloomington)
