Constitution Party West Virginia Petition
May 18th, 2008
The Constitution Party was unable to finish its petition in time for the May 12 West Virginia deadline. However, the same petition can still be turned in by the August 1 deadline. The disadvantage of the party using the later deadline is that the petition will only be good for president and vice-president, and not for other office, such as Governor.

The Constitution Party’s petition has Butch Paugh listed as its candidate for Governor. If the petition is turned in by August 1, and has enough valid signatures, Chuck Baldwin will be on for president, but Paugh will not be on for Governor. No statewide minor party petition has managed to qualify in West Virginia by the May deadline since 2000, when the Mountain Party succeeded.
 
Sigh. I was looking forward to voting for Butch.

I wonder why I was never approached by any of the CP activists I know with the petition. I just assumed they had it well in hand, as they've managed it for the past several years.
 
The Libertarian party is desperately trying to get signatures in W.VA too .. the Barr campaign is asking for money to pay people to collect signatures (but I bet they'd take volunteers as well).

I advise all LP members and libertarians to turn their cheek. I know I would
