Republican Statewide Petitions Are In

Jason Kenney | December 2, 2008 | Comments (1)

Petitions were due yesterday for candidates wanting to run for the Republican nomination for Governor, Lieutenant Governor and Attorney General at May, 2009′s convention. According to Virginia Virtucon, everyone made the cut but the Muldoon campaign may have to wait for it’s 11th CD signaturs to be verified:

Word is that Muldoon turned in enough petitions from each Cong. Dist., but only managed to gather 281 signatures in the 11th CD. Although only 200 signatures are required from each of the 11 CDs, if a candidates submits less than 300 signatures in a district, then each individual signature must be verified to be a registered voter in that district. This process is going on today.

Patrick Muldoon is challenging Bill Bolling for the Lieutenant Governor nomination. Dave Foster, Ken Cuccinelli, and John Brownlee are running for Attorney General. Bob McDonnell is unopposed for Governor.

Muldoon couldn’t even break the 300 threshold? This is guy who is supposed to take us to victory? What a joke.

About

Bearing Drift was established in 2004. The name comes from the relative motion of objects at sea. If there is no bearing drift, and the distance between you and the object is closing, there will be a collision; therefore, action must be taken.

Most navigation rules state that the best course of action with constant bearing and decreasing range is to alter one's course to starboard - the right! Therefore, most of us at Bearing Drift ascribe to this rule - if it looks like the ship-of-state is going to wreck, move right; you can't go wrong!!!
