Someone just go to Dormont and Gettysburg and get the signatures. How does it stand now? And why was it left till the last minute? Are there any more states we need to get going on now instead of waiting? The Paul void (if his name is not on the ballot) will probably be filled by "favorite son" Santorum.
It looks like we need 500 more signatures.
Where did you hear that?
That was as of Sunday morning. I am one of the people circulating petitions. Our database indicates around 1500(as of sunday morning), we need 2000. People were out doing stuff all day on sunday and are going out all day on monday.
A rep from the campaign in charge of the effort told people last night handing in delegate petitions that there was only 600 accounted for.
I got about 16 more sets last night, notarized, and turned in to someone who is driving to Harrisburg this morning. I think were going to be okay but we probably won't know for sure until a week or two from now - whenever the official challenge period ends. I'll update if I get any more info.
For those that don't understand how big a task this is - we have 108 delegate and alternate candidates running state wide that each need 400 signatures. That's 43,000 signatures in a 3 week window just for the delegates.
