From the AP:

A state judge on Monday ordered the Green Party candidate for U.S. Senate removed from ballot because the party did not have enough valid signatures in its nominating petitions.

Carl Romanelli’s candidacy had been challenged by state Democrats. Romanelli’s bid was backed by Sen. Rick Santorum, who hoped that Romanelli could siphon votes from his Democratic opponent, state Treasurer Bob Casey.

Commonwealth Court Judge James R. Kelley ruled that Romanelli, a railroad industry consultant from Wilkes-Barre, was 8,931 signatures shy of 67,070 he needed to qualify as a minor-party candidate.

Amazing how we don't hear that much about the Constitution party from the GOP. After all, Joe Hoeffel's own volunteers went around getting signatures for Clymer in the 2004 Senate race. I didn't hear too many on the GOP side whining.

They havent become a force yet.  Probably because conservatives tend to be a little more loyal to the party.  Its actually one of the traits I admire most about the right.
