OSCEOLA, Iowa – Four days after failing to turn in a sufficient number of signatures to gain access onto the Virginia ballot in March’s primary, Rick Perry’s campaign today filed a federal suit to challenge the ballot requirements of the state.
The suit, which was filed in U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, challenges the constitutionality of Virginia’s ballot requirements for presidential candidates.
“We want to be on the ballot, so we obviously think that there’s some conflict there from the standpoint of being able to get on the ballot, so we’ll get it all worked out,” Perry said today.
Ray Sullivan, communications director for Perry’s campaign, said in a statement, “Gov. Perry greatly respects the citizens and history of the Commonwealth of Virginia and believes Virginia Republicans should have greater access to vote for one of the several candidates for President of the United States.”
“Virginia ballot access rules are among the most onerous and are particularly problematic in a multi-candidate election. We believe that the Virginia provisions unconstitutionally restrict the rights of candidates and voters by severely restricting access to the ballot, and we hope to have those provisions overturned or modified to provide greater ballot access to Virginia voters and the candidates seeking to earn their support,” Sullivan said.
3 Virgina State attorney generals (past and current--dem, and rep.) are now challenging Virgina's ballot access regulations -referring to them as being unconstitutional.
Missouri's primary is meaningless. The caucus that follows is where the delegates are given.

This doesn't even make sense. Missouri IS a caucus. It's not a primary. And the delegates are decided in the many levels of conventions that follow the caucus. It's the same as Iowa.
