In Tennessee they are and some other states also
Not so. In Tennessee a candidate must be pre qualified to be eligible for write in, in the primary. In the general election , you may vote for Mickey Mouse if you like
Thanks for letting me know. A Freeper friend told me she read that Newt was on the ballot in most TN counties but not all. She also said that citizens could petition to be able to write in Newt in those counties where he is not on the ballot. I really don’t know where she read the info she told me. Thanks again.
I hope the mess in VA gets straightened out so all the candidates can be on the ballor. I heard that Romney and Paul did not have to get signatures since they ran for office in 2008. That they were grandfathered. Wonder if that is true?
