Whoops, Santorum Had Enough Signatures After All

I'll let you try to make sense of this. Cindy Mowery, a Republican elections worker in the Marion County voter registration office, initially claimed that Rick Santorum's 7th District petitions lacked the required 500 valid voter signatures. That triggered a slew of challenges being filed against Santorum's candidacy to keep him off the ballot for Indiana's Republican presidential primary. Those challenges are scheduled to be heard today before the Indiana Election Commission. Yesterday, Mowery changed her mind and now says that Santorum had enough valid signatures after all. Sorry, nothing to see here, move along now. Hum.

In other news, competence counting to 500 may soon become a prerequisite for working at the voter registration office?
