Donald Trump qualifies to be on Georgia's GOP presidential primary ballot

Republican front-runner Donald Trump is coming soon to a ballot near you.

His campaign said Friday he officially qualified to be on the ballot in Georgia, which votes on March 1, as well as a slew of other states hosting upcoming votes.

Says Trump:

"It is my honor to be on the ballot in Georgia, Louisiana, Missouri, Tennessee and Utah. I have visited Tennessee and Georgia many times and we have tremendous crowds and support from the great people there and I look forward to campaigning in Louisiana, Missouri, and Utah soon."

Trump has visited Georgia twice, including a trip to Macon this week where he warned his rivals not to attack him and threatened not to participate in the next GOP presidential debate. Droves of his fans at that event explained how an upper-crust Manhannite has formed a bond with working-class Georgians.
