Independent Conservative And Never Trump Candidate, Evan McMullin’s Next Steps To Gain Ballot Accesshttp://www.redstate.com/sweetie15/2016/08/16/independent-conservative-never-trump-candidate-evan-mcmullins-next-steps-gain-ballot-access/Nobody said it would be easy.
Evan McMullin, the ex-CIA operative, former senior advisor to the House Committee on Foreign Affairs, chief policy director of the House Republican Conference, and 11th hour Never Trump candidate has missed his window to get on the ballot in California, but he’s not giving up. His campaign plans to pursue a lawsuit to gain access.
.........
Only 1,000 signatures were needed for the Utah ballot. On Monday, McMullin’s camp reported that he had made the ballot and would be basing his campaign headquarters there.
There are actually about two dozen states where McMullin’s late entry into the race have caused him to be shut out. Knowing the obstacles he has to overcome, his campaign intends to explore every option available.
.....
This is the very definition of a long shot. McMullin has said that he waited so long to enter the race because he wanted to see if anyone else would come forward. They didn’t, so here he is.
Personally, I’m still considering my options. I’ll say definitively that anyone not named “Clinton” or “Trump” has a chance to earn my vote in November.
This is the year of the long shots. Our nation cannot afford to risk what has been forced on us by the media, backroom power players, and an angry, dumbed down and dying culture. If there be any left among us clinging to the true patriot spirit, we need to be willing to break out of this cattle car we've been lured into.
