GOP FAIL: Donald Trump Not Listed on Minnesota Ballot
Gateway Pundit ^ | August 24, 2016 | Kristinn Taylor

Posted on 08/24/2016 7:56:21 PM PDT by bobsunshine

Just days after his supporters and motorcade were attacked by protesters in Minneapolis at a GOP fundraiser, the Minnesota Republican party has not submitted the names of GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump and his vice presidential nominee Mike Pence to the secretary of state’s office for the November election, it was reported Wednesday night.

A check of the sample ballot listed at the website for the Minnesota secretary of state shows the tickets of Democrat Farm-Labor Hillary Clinton, Libertarian Gary Johnson, Green Jill Stein, anti-Trumper Evan McMullin and others with Socialist, Marijuana and other parties–but no Donald Trump.

A check of the filing status of federal candidates at the secretary of state website again shows no Donald Trump.

According to the same page, Trump, as a major party candidate, has until August 29 to file.

You could probably fit all the true conservatives in Minnesota in a high school gym.

I’m in California and the most liberal, vicious and radical liberals I’ve ever met are from Minnesota. They’re real Mondale lovers... They live next door to me. I haven’t made eye contact in years.

"Ronald Reagan lost Minnesota twice."

I remember an SNL skit post 1984 election where the cast was consoling Mondale by coloring in Lake Superior to make it look like he got more votes.
Been looking for that video, but it looks like Winston Smith stuffed it down the memory hole.

Maybe it isn’t the Gop, but the wired state of Minnesota who isn’t mentioning him. Trump probably has a chance there with the influx of the infidel Muslims.

Tomorrow, I should probably try to find out if Trump is on the Colorado ballot. People may recall that we had a bit of a problem here a couple of months ago with the CO-GOP management. The same people are still in charge, and some of them (especially the locals) are desperately trying to keep the system unfixed.

The GOPe establishment and the DC establishment in general is playing these games to their own peril, IMHO.

That undercurrent of anger (at DC) in the US is still there, and it would be an interesting thing if Hillary! wins and suddenly all those trucks and trains hauling food to the "power centers" suddenly disappear, much less "Blue Flu", everyone being below the taxable income, and yet ammo sales and gun sales are are record levels--not to mention rope, tar, and feather sales.

The only businesses still functioning would be the contractors willing to put up lamp posts in every public square.

Probably won’t win the electoral votes but every popular vote should be taken

5 days. Only 5 days. It sometimes takes that long for them to compose, type and mail a very strong worded letter. To do something really official, they would need much more time.

I just sent an email to my congress critter (Eric Paulsen), indicating my disgust at this situation, if true.

I also indicated to him that if he did not announce his support for Donald Trump, he would not receive my vote. I think he is in a close race, so maybe it will help.

Any Minnesotans reading this thread should get in gear, and raise holy heck. What is going on here?

It looks like we not only have to save the USA as we once knew and loved it - we now have to try to save Minnesota, particularly the twin cities from going the way of Detroit. And, yes, the DFL (democrats) “ruling” here are so far behind the curve that they do not know that they are dooming this once great state to eventual bankruptcy.

I’d like to know what you find out.
