WASHINGTON — Independent presidential candidate Ralph Nader suffered setbacks this week as election officials in Virginia, Maryland, Illinois and Missouri denied him access to state ballots this fall.

In each case, officials said Nader campaign workers either did not submit enough valid signatures on ballot petitions or failed to follow proper procedures.

Hey Ralph - just because nobody likes you anymore doesn't mean you have a license to break the rules. Give it up.
