First deadline has passed.
What happens then if Akin drops out since the deadline has already passed?
If we can recall, MO Democrats in 2000 faced a similar problem. However, one of a diffrent circumstance's where they lost their Senatorial senatorial candidate after the deadline to replace their name had passed. Although the candidate who was Governor Carnahan had died in a plane crash, but his name still remained on the ballot.
Is this going to be the same case when Akin finally throws in the towel or can the GOP fully remove his name from any assocation with this race?
