“Neither Romney nor Santorum were qualified in the Illinois primary ... They made a deal “

Mitt Romney’s vaunted organization nearly failed him in Illinois, where he only remained eligible for delegates on the ballot after a negotiated truce between his campaign and Rick Santorum’s people.

The problems stem from the campaign relying on Illinois state Treasurer Dan Rutherford. He struggled to acquire enough signatures to qualify for Romney’s delegates and then had the statement of candidacy notarized out of state, which the Santorum campaign challenged despite having its own statement of candidacy notarized in Iowa.

Had Santorum’s campaign been successful with its challenge to Romney, the error could have led to disqualifying Romney from winning any of the state’s delegates.

The petition standoff took place in early January, well before Santorum had risen to be Romney’s chief rival for the GOP nomination. It began when Romney’s campaign challenged the Santorum petitions in 10 of the 14 congressional districts in which the former Pennsylvania senator submitted delegate slates.

Santorum did not qualify at all in four of 18 Illinois congressional districts.

So what? Your guy isn’t even making an effort to win.

How many more states will the broke Newt skip?

Man, what a warrior.

Wow, look at that. The State government can execute an entire election without voters. That in and of itself is scary. Almost as scary as millions of Americans knowing 0bama has committed document fraud and nothing is done about it.

I posted this earlier as a way to get some laughs on IL primary day...the Paulistas were furious that Ron Paul barely got more fake votes than Buddy Roemer!

Although the fake votes were obviously made up by a Santorum fan.

That’s odd. Looking closely at the Tennessee, Mississippi, and Alabama results, I have yet to see any of this “result skewing.” If there were, it extends to Democrats putting out lawn signs as well. The areas where he won are full of his campaign signs by comparison with the others. He won the conservative(2/3) and independent leaning conservative(3/3) votes.

Good grief, the state tests their election systems. I'd be scared if they DIDN'T run tests like this.

The conspiracy mongering here seems to be a bit out of control at the moment. Has infowars been down lately or something?

But there MUST be software which prevents publication of test runs to the actual election results website.

Infowars, LOL! Hey, the Bilderberg meeting just adjourned and we all agreed that Illinois can ‘test run’ all they want and that is a GOOD thing, but publish it to the actual election results page? NOT GOOD because then Infowars’ phones start ringing and blog threads explode!

Its not hard to figure out when you look at a map. Romney is winning heavily populated areas full of liberals.

Did 100,000 democrats actually cross over 3-1 for Santorum in the Michigan primary? No.

In fact if any union members voted for Santorum they are people like myself who have been union but never been liberal.

Description of the Reagan Democrats (From Wiki)

The work of Democratic pollster Stan Greenberg is a classic study of Reagan Democrats. Greenberg analyzed white ethnic voters (largely unionized auto workers) in Macomb County, Michigan, just north of Detroit. The county voted 63 percent for John F. Kennedy in 1960, but 66 percent for Reagan in 1980. He concluded that “Reagan Democrats” no longer saw Democrats as champions of their working class aspirations, but instead saw them as working primarily for the benefit of others: the very poor, feminists, the unemployed, African Americans, Latinos, and other groups. In addition, Reagan Democrats enjoyed gains during the period of economic prosperity that coincided with the Reagan administration following the “malaise” of the Carter administration. They also supported Reagan’s strong stance on national security and opposed the 1980s Democratic Party on such issues as pornography, crime, and high taxes.

Oh, yeah?

1) In the exit polls, 8 to 10% of the voters desribed themselves as democrats.

2) In the latest polls, 12 hours before the elections, Gingrich was leading Santorum with 6 to 8 points. Santorum lagged behind in the third place ...

3) ...and Santorum “won”? With the help of Michel Moore, unions and the democrats’ operation ‘Hillarity’...

Just connect the dots.

The dude really needs to do his homework.. seriously!!! I doubt that the voter turnout is going to triple over the 2008 Illinois primary. If 3 million people vote, I’ll be the most shocked person on this board. During the ‘08 Illinois primary roughly 1 million voted. End of story!!
