In the state of Maine, the deadline for candidates for president to turn in a sufficient number of signatures to be on the March 5, 2024 Primary Election ballot was 5 p.m. on Friday. The candidates needed 2,000 valid voter signatures to appear on the ballot. According to the Secretary of State, candidate Chris Christie did not make the cut.
Dec. 2 (UPI) — Former New Jersey governor and Republican presidential hopeful Chris Christie will not be on the Maine primary election ballot after failing to obtain the required number of in-state petition signatures.
In order to be on the ballot for Maine’s March 5, 2024, primary election, candidates must have 2,000 in-state signatures, but state officials said Saturday he didn’t make the cut.
“The deadline for candidates for president to turn in a sufficient number of signatures to be on the March 5, 2024, primary election ballot was 5 p.m. today,” Maine’s Secretary of State said in a press release.
Christie only received 844 signatures, Maine Director of Elections Heidi Peckham told CBS News. (link)
Who are the 844 who showed the world they are dumb enough to sign their name for this treasonous liar?
844 idiots and covidiots, all with TDS. As a Maine resident, IMO most likely all 844 are the coastal elites and the residents of the Capital, Augusta.
Have not met anyone who likes this guy – and I’m in Mid Coast region. Trump IMO has overwhelming support. The Trump Monument in Waldoboro a local reminder of this.
It’s what Demonrats do
The owners of every donut shop in the state.
Golden Corral corporate will be ever grateful to the people of the state.
Pathetic!
Christie choked his brain out by wearing his pants too high.
He never had a smidgen of a chance. Ever.
Christie had absolutely NO PLATFORM other than to spew his hate for DJT. I never heard of him having any campaign managers or PACs to disseminate his “message.” Funny, he thought his own disdain for DJT was enough; what a narcissist.
Hey, Christie, pride goeth before the fall.
He was a paid “disrupter” .. The dems paid him or offered him some position to be a thorn in Trumps side. Christy had zero chance from day 1 and he knew it. He was just collecting his payment.. Remember that picture of him and Barry on the beach…
Besides all he did to trash Trump, he was in there for the free snacks at the debates behind the curtain.
His purpose was to spew Trump hate and try to create some anti-Trump narrative. No more, no less.
Sundance, does this call for an update to the big “Hollywood” squares box?
I like to see big fat ❌ over the quitters.
Big fat ❌ please.
😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂🤣🤣😂😂😂😂
Oh noes!!!! No crispy creme??? Who am I going to vote for now….
Write in the Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man from Ghostbusters.
The moviemakers wanted the Pillsbury Doughboy but couldn’t afford him.
And obviously neither could Christie.
Full of hot air Christie goes “Pffft”
A metaphoric image: Bing Videos
So why did he not pull out … oh never mind, what a jerk 🙁
You mean his father…..? We wish.
The Outlaw Jersey Whale needs to find another town to roll into. He’s not wanted here.
Ditto for Da Meatball in Florida.
Outlaw Jersey Whale.
Now that’s funny.
Yes, it is.
A stuffed animal like him has ZERO room to criticize Trump.
Chrispy Chreme couldn’t make the cut and I didn’t even know he was still running! Lol
Chris Christie is simply out of his league. Better stick to NJ dirty political tricks and stay under the front porch.
Not there for President, there to make sure Trump doesn’t. Deep State career politician.
Sad trombone.
Who TF is Ryan Binkley, who I’ve never heard of, and why is he running?
Evidently at least 2000 others were curious enough to sign a request to hear more. Same for that Burgum juggernaut.
I just want to know which of the remaining candidates is attracting the donations of the Anti-Trump NE Corruption Corridor interest group of the GOPe?
Lol, somebody did some clever editing:
Christie isn’t qualified for anything.
How about replacing Jarod at Subway? That guy lost loads of weight and went on to…
Uh…wait…
Never mind…
He could play Jabba the Hutt in the next Disney Wars movie flop.
ROFLOL!!!
Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha, stupid bloated tub of goo!!!🤮
Your Schadenfreude news of the day!
Hate to be a party pooper, but Christie is still running so we’ll have to hear about his Never Trump rants for awhile longer . His campaign had this to say about Maine:
“The campaign collected and submitted over 6,000 signatures,” a campaign spokesperson for Christie told CBS News. “This is simply a procedural issue with the way they reviewed signatures and is under appeal.”

Christie will keep chugging along even if he doesn’t qualify for more states. He seems to believe his assigned role is to be an aggressive foil to President Trump, without any expectation of winning.
Not much of a foil imo. President Trump doesn’t pays him any mind and doubt anyone else does either.
Guess what?
He doesn’t matter.
…at all.
The article said that Desantis did not make the ballet either Oh Wosss me LOL>
poor Christy He will not Have any more chances the throw crap at President Trump
one down another few to go
“Christie only received 844 signatures”
This is nearly Liz Cheney-esque for a politician.
Perhaps I am misremembering, but wasn’t the White Lizzo reported to be strong in New Hampshire?
Yes, I know this is Maine, but I expected his support would be stronger in the northeast. And if those reports were to be believed.
HA, parden my language, it could not happen to a bigger A$$hole!
Looks like all of the Dunkin Donut locations in Maine are safe for now!
So are all of the Golden Corrals.
Like a wrestler who doesn’t make weight.
Nothing a hug from Barry and couple of glazed fritters won’t cure ya festering bag of guts .
All Christie votes will go to Asa Hutchinson.
Guys…He doesn’t care.
His job was to pretend to be a Republican to make Trump look bad by disparaging him to the media. This might have worked as short a time as 10 years ago, but there is no faith left in the media or the Republican party as an institution by conservative voters.
Sorry Chris, you didn’t make the cut. Please feel free to take a Christie creme donut with you on your way out the door.
He’ll take the whole box.
Christie and Cheney
Sittin’ in a tree…
Can’t get over
Their j e l l-a-see
It don’t matter…no one knows he’s running for President…
good for Burum …glad he made it.
LOL! That is all.
Too funny ,who don’t hate the pig ?
Our government is broken. We have lifetime politicians who could not maintain gainful employment anywhere other than the totalitarian clown show. Christie is one of those; a complete in your face loser! Every time he opens his mouth he makes an ass out of himself.
“The candidates needed 2,000 valid voter signatures to appear on the ballot.”
The bar was set so low he couldn’t fit under it.
It’s not going to stop CNN from having him on as often as possible to trash Donald Trump.
Christie’s plan was to raise his profile before the Primaries so he can ask big dollars on Lefty cable. He can be called Republican and expand his never Trump diatribe to a welcoming audience. Navarro and Griffin.
Why does Christie do this?
If he sees himself as a man in the arena, he’s in the wrong arena.
Ann Coulter should cook him a couple of 7 course meals as a consolation prize.
Who in the tech is Burgum and Binkey😂😂😂???
Heck
Chris Christy Fails….
Normal activity for that fat RINO skank
Truth be told, “Fails to Qualify” should be his campaign motto.
Wow, only 844 signatures when he needed 2000! That’s like him going to a buffet and there was only a few half empty trays of food there. He’s not happy.
Christie Creamed!
