| At least 5 more qualify for R.I. presidential primary ballot »
Presidential hopefuls have until 4 p.m. today to get their names on the ballot in time for the March 4 Rhode Island presidential primary. Candidates will need to collect 1,000 certified signatures. See how close they are to their goal on the Secretary of State's Web site, where daily updates are being posted. Not much has changed since Monday --just Hillary Clinton, Rudy Giuliani and Barack Obama have collected more than 1,000 signatures, but only Obama has more than 1,000 certified signatures. The Republicans competing in Rhode Island are Hugh Cort, Rudy Giuliani, Mike Huckabee, Duncan Hunter, Alan Keyes, John McCain, Ron Paul, Mitt Romney, Tom Tancredo-- who has dropped out of the race -- and Fred Thompson. The Democrats are Joe Biden, Hillary Clinton, Chris Dodd, John Edwards, Mike Gravel, Dennis Kucinich, Barack Obama, Bill Richardson, Ray Stebbins and Rosemary Turner. -- projo.com staff writer Brandie M.
