COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Democrat Martin O’Malley has failed to qualify as a write-in candidate for Ohio’s presidential primary after he previously fell short of the signatures needed for his name to appear on the key swing state’s ballot.
To be a write-in candidate for the March 15 primary, contenders were required to file a declaration of intent with Ohio’s elections chief by 4 p.m. Monday.
A spokesman for Republican Secretary of State Jon Husted (HYOO’-sted) tells The Associated Press that O’Malley missed the deadline. Husted’s office says it received the former Maryland governor’s paperwork at about 8 a.m. Tuesday. There is no appeals process under Ohio law.

The funniest part, was over 30% of the signatures were deemed fraudulent.
Hes just hoping for a cabinet position at this point because his career is over.
Too bad, so sad.
Like everything else he's done, a DISASTER!
i'm sure he is paying himself to run for president...he's gotta make a living you know...lmao
The HildaBeast would hire him!
That says a lot about both of them!
He must be living off the campaign funds.

He couldn't even be elected Dogcatcher after his term as governor, people know how he is now.

We posted a story on December 31st about him failing to qualify for the ballot. This has to do with him missing a deadline to be a write in. Keep up!
He was terrible for Maryland and terrible for our country. just go away please!
I'm enjoying watching O'Malley's ego get deflated little by little.
The omalley era is coming to a crashing halt. Omalley I have loved you being in this election as you have been the wiping boy for the democrats and all us Marylanders who you screwed over. I am going to miss all the negative press you keep getting for your disastrous record in Maryland.
