Republican presidential candidates Michele Bachmann, Jon Huntsman and Rick Santorum failed to qualify for the Virginia ballot, according to state GOP officials.
Four candidates — former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney, former House speaker Newt Gingrich, Texas Gov. Rick Perry and Rep. Ron Paul (Texas) — turned in thousands of signatures by the deadline.
Candidates had until 5 p.m. to collect 10,000 signatures from across the state, including 400 from each congressional district.
Virginia, an increasingly important swing state, will hold its primary on Super Tuesday, March
The signatures still must be certified by Republican Party of Virginia. Garren Shipley, a party spokesman, said he expects that to be completed by Friday.

I don't know about the rest of you--but this is something that makes one want to go HMMM>
Perry & Gingrich turn in thousands of signatures but were kicked out of Virginia's primary--and all the rest couldn't collect enough signatures to get on the ballot--COME-ON.
The state GOP will probably start going through Ron Paul's signatures--disqualify him--and then this state will turn into a Mitt Romney ballot---
