Nobody familiar with the train wreck that was the Deval Patrick administration in Massachusetts can be shocked to hear that Patrick failed to make the Democratic presidential primary in Michigan.
If Patrick had simply informed the chairman of the Michigan Democratic Party by November 12 that he planned to run, he could have gotten his name on the ballot without any trouble. Instead, he announced on November 14, was forced to collect signatures of registered voters, and failed to come up with enough.
Former Massachusetts Governor Deval Patrick will not appear on the Democratic Party's ballot in the 2020 presidential primary in Michigan.
As MassLive.com reports, Patrick filed more than 13,000 signatures to appear on the March 10 ballot in the state, which is more than the 11,345 signatures needed to appear on the ballot.
