Nader won't be on Oregon ballot

In spite of all the work by the Republican party Ralph Nader won't be on the Oregon ballot.

Secretary of State Bill Bradbury announced Wednesday that Nader fell about 200 signatures short of the requirement to get him on the ballot this fall.


Also, many of the signature sheets were improperly numbered after names were certified by the counties but before reaching the secretary of state’s office, weren’t numbered at all, or weren’t properly signed and dated. Bradbury said the state law is "crystal clear" that petition sheets have to be numbered before they're turned in to county clerks for signature checking.

Nader was interviewd in New York and referred to Oregon elections officials as "facists".
