Just a thought. Trump collected those signatures at his very well attended rallies. Easy peasy — since there are so many enthusiastic in attendance. The others with so few at their events not as easy.
Actually, the 5000 is the correct total. Of those 5000, 200 of them must be from each district. I am a volunteer here in VA and Dena, Trump’s Virgina coordinator was amazing. It’s not surprising we got so many signatures quickly. She wanted them fast because she sent them to a company to validate signatures BEFORE she submitted to VA Board. That way she would be confident there would be not rejections.
Perfect! This is great news to have Virginia preliminary rules already met, all nicely polished and put away, by the Trump campaign!
That makes perfect sense, doesn’t it, for Trump to be so pragmatic and expeditious to get his required signatures at rallies! We always hear of other candidates tromping through the woods and neighborhoods, on the ground, to dig up their quota of signatures.
Trump has them come to him!
