Is anyone surprised?
@1 nope, but it is too bad b/c I was looking forward to an opening up for Gary Johnson
How about Goode being substituted for Baldwin on the Reform ticket?

Yeah…what a buzz kill. A sitting president allowed on a ballot. Goddamned democracy.
Hey, I’m in favor of him being on the ballot. I’d never vote for this war criminal any more than the last one (or the one before him, etc) but the birther nonsense is some of the most idiotic drooling dribble to come down the pike ever.
If he wasn’t on the ballot, he still would have come in second via write-ins.
Where’s the “he’s not elligible” group? (chirp chirp)
@6 maybe, I would say he woul have gotten third after Romney and a third party candidate like Johnson or even Baldwin. According to KS statue write-ins are allowed in the general election.
“At any general election, write-in blanks are provided on the ballot for each office.” -KS law
Any word on Americans Elect trying to get Barr on the ballot? I’m guessing they won’t succeed
@9
That attempt failed.
