Well, it’s down to three. Mitt Romney, Newt Gingrich and Ron Paul. The rest of the Republicans, Rick Santorum, Jon Huntsman, Michele Bachmann and now Rick Perry will not be participating in the Virginia Republican Presidential Primary in 2012. All failed to turn in the required signatures to comply with Virginia Electoral laws.
From the Republican Party of Virginia:
The Republican Party of Virginia has completed its examination of the nominating petitions filed by Texas Gov. Rick Perry.
After verifying the signatures submitted by the campaign, RPV has determined that Governor Perry submitted fewer than the 10,000 signatures required by the Code of Virginia.
As such, he has failed to qualify for the ballot and will not be included in the March 6 primary.
