D.C. Mayor:

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Embattled Mayor Anthony Williams started campaigning for voter support around the nation's capital on Sunday, his birthday, after he was kicked off the Democratic primary ballot for November's election.
Williams said he was looking at every option and vowed to find a way back onto the ballot to defeat what he considers an unjust ruling by the District of Columbia's elections board to deny him his spot because of fraudulent nominating petitions.
The three-member board ruled unanimously late Friday that Williams lacked the required 2,000 valid signatures, even though the registrar of voters said a review of the 10,240 signatures found at least 2,235 that seemed valid.
Among names on petitions were Billy Joel, Kelsey Grammer, Tony Blair and other specious signatures.

I think it is amusing...at least 2,235 seemed valid out of 10,240. |
