I thought Newt was going back to Virginia to hear Callista sing in the church choir.
This isn't the first time this has happened. Newt will not be on the Missouri ballot because he filed late. He almost missed being on the Ohio ballot.
The Missouri "primary" is actually a straw vote, as no delegates will be at stake.
Missouri holds caucusses a week or two later and the results of that election will determine the delegate count.
Newt is eligible for the caucusses.
