A couple days ago we reported that team Kasich was facing a court challenge to their ballot access in Pennsylvania. Specifically, the plaintiff in the case alleged that Team Kasich failed to file the required 2,000 valid signatures to appear on the ballot in Pennsylvania.

He made some 5 -6 million this year. I am tired of politicians who produce zip making a million plus. They forget they work for us the first day in office.

I think he will be out of the race by the time Pennsylvania votes.
Weird that if one is collecting signatures which are easily challenged that one wouldn’t collect two or three times as many just to forestall a challenge. We’re talking 2000 in a state of nearly 13 million. I know there must be some expense involved but the amount is trivial considering whats involved. What if this happened to Trump or Cruz? Someone with a legitimate chance?

2,000 signatures? Hell, I got that in an afternoon at the mall back in my foot soldier days of campaigning. Plus its SOP to try to knock your opponent(s) off the ballot through signature challenges.
What does this say abut the candidate as well as his staff?
All you have to do is hit the abuse button on your post and ask the mods to delete it. They’ve never turned me down yet.
Oh cool thank you.
You are right, imo. Kasich there just to get some delegates to keep them from Trump.
“Looks to me like Kasich’s botched petition might stand because the Rubio supporter who challenged it botched the challenge.

So this tracks with what I checked today, and Kasich IS officially on the ballot.
