The party leadership has formally acknowledged that the primary results must be respected. Our position regarding the integrity of the ballot process has prevailed. We will continue to monitor the situation to ensure that this commitment is upheld throughout the remainder of the election cycle.

This petition affirms that if Congressman Akin does step down, the Republican party should, in direct compliance with Republican values and principles, nominate the second place challenger on the August 2012 Missouri US Senate Primary Ballot. It is not the will of the voters, nor is it in the interest of the Republican party, for the voice of the people to be ignored when choosing their elected representation.
The primary process was fair and the people have spoken.

The establishment needs to stop acting like they pick the winners. Respect the ballot box in Missouri.
Let the 2nd place person slide in if it comes to that. Follow the rules.
Stop trying to undo what the voters did.
Exactly. Why even have primaries if they just gonna swap people out behind closed doors? Let the numbers stand.
RIDICULOUS that they think they can just ignore the August results. We voted for a reason.

The people voted and their choice should stick. Tired of party elites thinking they know better than us.
