Fred files




From the Thompson campaign
FRED THOMPSON FILES FIRST
First Republican Candidate to file for Ohio Primary

COLUMBUS, Ohio, January 3, 2008 – Today the Ohio Fred Thompson campaign filed the necessary petitions and signatures with the Secretary of State to place Senator Thompson on the ballot for Ohio’s Republican primary on March 4, 2008.

Senator Thompson was the first Republican candidate to file all of his petitions around the state and with the Secretary of State.

“Our delegates and volunteers did an amazing job of collecting over 3,000 signatures across Ohio. You need 1,000 valid Republican signatures, but we actually had to put petitions to the side to get under the maximum limit of 3,000 signatures. The vast majority of this work was completed in just 10 days in early December. We gathered signatures from 47 different counties. The response to Senator Thompson’s campaign has been unbelievable,” said Thompson’s Ohio Coordinator Darrin Klinger, former Executive Director of “Bush-Cheney 04” for the state of Ohio.

This statewide filing completes a whirlwind tour of the state in which the Thompson campaign filed petitions in Ohio’s 18 congressional districts.

They collected over 3000 signatures - those Republicans will sign anything anyone puts in front of them.
Someone said it- Fred was looking to put a Barcalounger in the Oval Office, but it's not going to happen for Ho-Hum Fred.
