Sixteen Presidential Candidates Qualify for Rhode Island Presidential Primaries

The Rhode Island Secretary of State’s office has finished checking petitions for presidential primary candidates. Twelve Republicans and four Democrats submitted at least 1,000 valid signatures, and will be on ballots.

The four Democrats are Hillary Clinton, Rocky De La Fuente, Bernie Sanders, and Mark Stewart.

The twelve Republicans are Jeb Bush, Ben Carson, Chris Christie, Ted Cruz, Carly Fiorina, Jim Gilmore, Mike Huckabee, John Kasich, Rand Paul, Marco Rubio, Rick Santorum, and Donald Trump. Never before had more than seven Republicans appeared on a Rhode Island presidential primary ballot. Although some of these candidates have withdrawn from the race, they were still running on the date they submitted petitions, so they will be on the ballot.
