It?s Mitt Romney v. Ron Paul In Virginia As Other Candidates Fail To Qualify For Primary Ballot
When you?re running to be the next President of the United States, it?s generally a good idea to make sure people are able to vote for you. But in a surprise twist in this already twisted-up campaign, both Newt Gingrich and Rick Perry will not be on the ballot when Virginia Republican voters go to cast their vote for their party?s nominee, meaning the primary in that state will boil down to a contest between Mitt Romney and Ron Paul.
Which leaves Romney and Paul, two candidates whom different factions of the Republican party have shown a deep dissatisfaction for. The lack of other frontrunner candidates means Romney might have a stronger showing in the state, but Paul?s recent surge in the polls might end up surprising analysts who have already ruled out his prospects of winning the race.
