"Dick" Perry Will Top Rick Perry On Arizona Primary Ballot (TPM)

[RandySF]

The order of candidates appearing on the ballot for Arizona’s upcoming Republican presidential primary was announced Tuesday and it brought bad news for Texas Gov. Rick Perry.

Perry’s name will appear far down the list in the No. 17 spot after a random drawing of the 23 GOP candidates who qualified for the ballot. But worst of all for the governor, the Tucson Weekly reports, a local guitarist named Al “Dick” Perry who’s running a longshot campaign for the nomination scored the No. 4 spot.

“I hope that doesn’t confuse our voters,” Arizona Secretary of State Ken Bennett told reporter Jim Nintzel. “Hopefully they’ll notice the distinction between Rick Perry and Al ‘Dick’ Perry.
