Don’t worry. Newt did make the ballot. See my post #39.

Governor Perry actually got more signatures than Newt. See my post #39 for the numbers.

Newt did win the necessary signatures: 11,050 signatures. See more numbers and the latest on the Virginia ballot on my post #39.

No, I just read that 2000 of Newt’s signatures were disqualified for lack of addresses. Only Romney and Paul qualified, even though Newt and Perry turned in more than 10,000.

Bump to greeneyes’ comments.
We read the same thing: too many of Newt’s signatures are disqualified for lack of addresses.

Darn. I also read that Virginia doesn’t allow write ins. Do you know if that is true or not?

Newt’s been at every debate. If he’s not on your ‘ballot’ you might want to put him there. Because, after he kicks Romney’s ph0ny conservative ass-followed by Obama’s in November- he won’t forget and neither would I.

It's official. Newt out.
After verification, RPV has determined that Newt Gingrich did not submit required 10k signatures and has not qualified for the VA primary.

I don’t know, but I suspect, VA won’t permit write-in votes.
VA will either have to amend or risk looking foolish.

Gingrich and Perry both out in VA, leaving VA to the snake and the lunatic.
Good luck to VA with that.
Merry CHRISTmas!

If I lived in Virginia, I’d be raising a ruckus for sure, and getting everyone I could to do the same.

Yep, I hear you and I would be livid too.
Newt Gingrich is a resident of VA. I suspect he might raise a ruckus.
I think Gingrich and Perry might challenge the verification.

If there’s one thing we need right now, it’s a Hitler Downfall YouTube video of Hitler finding out Newt didn’t get on the Virginia ballot.

Well, I’d be looking for some in the trunk of some ones car. Perry had more signatures than Newt, but they are both out. It just seems awfully coincidental that the establishment candidate now only has to face the weakest opponent.

I think VA will be challenged and have to amend or look foolish.
Can barely wait for Gingrich to respond later today; Christmas Eve, no less.
I seriously wonder whether Ron Paul has a security clearance?

The 10,000 registered voters must also include 400 signatures from each of Virginia’s 11 congressional districts.
To: onyx
LOL. I hope something can be done about Virginia.
As to Ron Paul, I am not sure that Clinton or Obama qualified for a security clearance either, but they were still elected.
This world becomes more bizarre by the minute.

GOOD one. Thanks very much.
Romney has been running for this nomination for years.
He’s the one with his followers on the ground and the money.
Merry CHRISTmas, PJ-Also!!!
