its called a write in vote
I believe the meme against Cain when he messes up is that he is not ready to be president.
Wow...pretty big mistake.....makes one wonder about his campaign management
If he can’t got his own name on the ballot ....where there is smoke there is fire
He forgot to zip his fly? Goodness. That’s just embarrassing.
There’s an argument here in favor of organizational proficiency. Is anyone really running for President or are they all just place holding for Romney’s eventual ascendancy.
This is totally amateur. Day one you insure you’re on the ballots.
Hope he gets registered in the remaining 56 states. ;-)
I heard that Herman Cain won all the MO Tea Party straw polls. Go Herman Cain!
Doesn’t sound like Newt is very serious about becoming the president, does it?
so which is worse... pausing for a few seconds before answering a foreign policy question... or forgetting to actually get on the ballot in one of the US states?
Yeah, but he’s such a good debater. lol. Looks like the genius couldn’t get into a flea market for the paperwork involved.
It would seem to be a highly stupid, and potentially fatal, bid to become the nominee and fail to ensure that you’re on each state.
Imagine if it did come down to Gingrich and Romney and they were tied, but Gingrich lost because of this one error.
No delegates will be awarded in the Mo primary. It's a beauty contest. The state Republican Party will hold caucuses in March to award delegates.
Not making excuses for Newt. Just simply trying to give the full story.
Your home state. Guess you can write him in :)
This is not what you would expect from a candidate who is serious about winning.
It is what you would expect from a “stalking horse” type of candidate, who is being paid off to draw conservative votes away from other candidates. Who knows?
Maybe Gingrich is just air headed, or it was just an oversight. But it sure is strange.
Sounds like someone is playing politics.
The couch is doing him in. What a visual error.
looks like the RINO’s aim is to split the conservative vote by making the right noises so that Mittens gets nominated.
Looks like it’s time for a new wife.
lol. That’s not a good sign for his organizational skills
Missouri’s caucus is March 17. The February “primary” is a straw poll-like beauty contest and does not correlate to delegates.
