Mitt Romney’s visit to Springfield comes as new details are emerging about a deal that may have saved Romney from getting kicked off the Illinois ballot.
It was earlier reported that Romney’s camp agreed not to challenge Rick Santorum’s petitions in ten congressional districts where he was far short of the number of signatures required to have his delegates on the ballot.
But the Daily Herald reported over the weekend that the deal also averted a challenge to Romney’s own petitions which were notarized in Massachusetts, rather than in Illinois as required by law.
