Yesterday a reader e-mailed us with the tip that we should keep a real close eye on who has and hasn't filed their nomination papers in a few Republican primaries. U.S. Rep Elton Gallegly, the tipster said, hadn't filed yet, and so Republicans in other races were waiting, too, in case Gallegly's spot opened up at the last minute. Of course, four years ago, Gallegly missed the initial deadline, said he would retire, then changed his mind and had to scramble to get on the ballot.
It was an interesting story, but it turned out to be just that, a story -- "story" as in, "a made-up tale," not "story" as in, an article in the newspaper. Gallegly filed his nomination papers on Monday, well before today's deadline, so he'll be on the ballot in June.
Keep those rumors coming, though. We'll investigate every one we can.
And check the homepage of The Star tonight for a full list of who files by the 5 p.m. deadline.
