Of course, if the worker hadn’t forged 1500 signatures, he would have had fewer than 10,000 and wouldn’t have even been able to submit.

If he’s saying they stopped collecting signatures because they thought they had enough, that would be stupid because he really should have been shooting for 15,000.

Still, I feel bad for him. It’s not easy to get signatures if you don’t have a reliable volunteer base, and it’s hard to enter into a state you know little about and put a team together.

If this is true that man should be on his way to jail. The guy who forged signatures committed a crime.

Really, the whole exercise of collecting thousands of signatures has the practical effect of reducing the size of the real electorate, and that reduces my opportunity to VOTE ~ and I object.

You read my mind. Nothing to add as you said it.

Newt Gingrich has lived in Virginia ever since he was first elected to Congress 30 years age. If he should be organized anywhere, it should be Virginia.
