Rick Santorum might not be be on the Indiana primary ballot in May, and no not just because he might have lost all hope of overcoming Mitt Romney by then, but because he's at least 30 signatures short. According to Buzzfeed's Rosie Gray, Santorum is just under the 500 signatures needed to qualify. Gray notes that the news might be important now because it's another small reason for conservatives trying to unite behind a non-Romney to throw in with Gingrich. But then, it's not as if Gingrich has a great track record getting himself on ballots either.
