I don’t get this article. He withdrew his name from the nomination. In writing. If pre printed ballots still have his name on them, that’s administrative error.

He’s not a candidate for president.

Mickey Mouse isn’t running and he gets write ins every election. The lady behind the McDonald’s counter isn’t running and you could write her in, too.

Sort of cheapens your vote when you do.

No, if one qualified to be on the ballot (which he did), he’s still legally running whether he’s doing so actively or not -— it is not an administrative error.

Doesn’t matter. If you are on the ballot and have not withdrawn by the cutoff date you will be on the ballot in the election.

Here in Texas Fred is on the ballot. And there will be some HARD lessons learned when the votes are counted. I will vote for Fred. If the "republicans" have become so damn socialist that they could not pick such an OBVIOUS choice as Thompson-Hunter then they are too stupid and it is time for them to go.

All the ballots for Super Tuesday were certified and printed before Fred withdrew. In most, if not all cases, write-in lines do not appear on a primary ballots.

if enough people write in the woman’s name behind the counter...she could get the nod...

it’s that open a field of losers...

besides at the kyoto meetings she could ask...

“would you like to fry with that...”

hehehe
