Bush May Not Make Alabama's Ballot
Via Oliver at The Liquid List, CNN reports that Bush may not make Alabama's ballot .
Unless Alabama's election law is changed, there could be one notable candidate missing from the state's 2004 presidential election ballot -- President Bush.Now wouldn't that be sweet!....The problem is that the Republican National Convention is being held later than usual to avoid conflict with the Olympics, and the GOP won't choose a candidate until September 2 -- two days after Alabama's August 31 deadline to certify presidential contenders.
Republicans are asking the Democrat-controlled Legislature to change the law and extend the deadline until September 5.
That bill is on the work agenda in the House for Thursday, but some Republicans say they are concerned the bill has been placed behind several contentious issues and may not come up for consideration.
