Donald Trump's team is encouraging its supporters in Washington state to sign up to be a potential Trump delegate. The only problem: The campaign's local crew sent its email on Friday -- two days after the filing deadline to appear on the printed ballot in Saturday's conventions and caucuses.
The email, headlined "invitation," encouraged supporters to submit their Declaration of Candidacy for Delegate form. But the very next sentence says the filing deadline was Wednesday.
"You can still be elected as a Trump Delegate at your GOP County Convention this Saturday!" the April 8 email, which was obtained by POLITICO, says. "If you have submitted a Declaration of Candidacy for Delegate form to your GOP County Chairman by the assigned deadline of 10:00am on April 6th."
While it appears the Trump campaign dropped the ball on the deadline to appear on the printed ballot, the billionaire's supporters can still try their hand at being nominated from the floor.
According to Caleb Heimlich, executive director of the Washington state Republican Party, any convention or caucus (the counties are hosting them on a rolling basis from March 12 to April 16) has a filing deadline 72 hours before the event in order to appear on the ballot.
"It is too late to be on the printed ballot for the ones this Saturday," Heimlich said.

We’ve had ten months of trying to reason with you folks.
Now you’re even willing to toss this into a floor fight at the convention controlled by the GOPe.
Nope, the days of reason didn’t work, so they’re over.

Wish I could remember where I read it in the last couple of days, it was in an article that mentioned the lack of experience in Trump’s campaign staff. Trump said that he preferred competent people over experienced people.
Trouble with that logic, though, is how the heck do you know how competent someone is if they have no experience?
Correct on all counts.
Yes, I remember some of those interviews.
"...she does have a very nice figure. Ive said if Ivanka werent my daughter, perhaps Id be dating her. -- 2006
"and what a beauty, that one..... If I werent happily married, and ya know, her father -- 2015
--Donald J. Trump, discussing his daughter
Gee, you are sheltered, huh?
You never got such treasured compliments I take it?
Or do you just have one of those kind of “minds”.
Guilty as charged - my parents never lusted after me.
Or do you just have one of those kind of minds.
Don't blame the messenger. Oh, that's right - the buck does not stop with Trump.
I wouldn’t be too impressed. It’s an old quote supposedly said by Putin.
You’ll never reason me into supporting a progress, crude big-government Republican like Donald Trump.
For one reason: He’s not conservative.
Cruz will win a plurality, he’s outworking and out organizing Donald Trump.
But your guy ate his own booger on national TV.
It’s a retred from a Putin quote, but it is funny.
Like I said, you’d rather focus on insults, GIF and memes than actual arguments. NICE way to win friends, btw. Especially of people that you ~might~ need in November against Hillary Clinton!?
“I can just see it now — a wall built between New Mexico and the rest of the U.S”
Don’t matter who you are that’s funny...
I don’t get out much.
I knew I had seen the comment years ago, but today I have read it by the same poster 4 or 5 times on different threads. i guess I don’t get out much either.
To me this is a plus for Trump
