http://thehill.com/blogs/ballot-box/presidential-races/301323-trump-campaign-left-out-of-alaska-voter-guideAlaskans wont find any information about Donald Trump in their voters guide this year, after the GOP presidential nominee's campaign failed to submit biographical data and a candidate statement.
The voter guide, which hit mailboxes this weekend, includes candidate statements from Democrats Hillary Clinton and Tim Kaine, Green Party nominee Jill Stein and her running mate, Ajamu Baraka, the Constitution Party nominee and an independent candidate. But state elections officials say the Trump campaign and Libertarian nominee Gary Johnson did not submit materials ahead of an Aug. 30 deadline.
Josie Bahnke, Alaskas director of elections, sent letters to the Republican National Committee, Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) and Tuckerman Babcock, the chairman of the Alaska Republican Party, seeking information from the Trump campaign. But none of those groups responded in time to be included in the pamphlet.
Looks like we've got yet another conspiracy against tRump on our hands. OBVIOUSLY Paul Ryan didn't respond to the request for information because he wants to run in 4 years.

(11,523 posts)The first thing I do every morning is pull up the news to see what other stupid shit tRump has done. Gotta' admit, he's compiled quite the list. Let's see, just off the top of my head (and I'm sure I'll miss some)
- put his wife on stage to read a speech which was plagiarized from Michelle Obama
- brought models into the US to work using tourist visas
- showed nearly a $1 BILLION loss in a single year on his taxes
- avoided paying income tax for nearly 20 years
- conducted business in Cuba when it was illegal to do so
- bragged about sexual assault (complete with multiple victims and witnesses)
- bombed his debate then blamed his microphone
- accused his debate opponent of using performance enhancing drugs
- stiffed hundreds of contractors and small businesses
- turned a press conference into an infomercial for his hotel
Oh hell, I don't have all night.
