Mike Gravel got an entire 325 votes in the recently-certified Arkansas election - which is pitiful. More people chose not to vote for a candidate. Gravel does indeed appear to be slowing his campaign, as he did not respond to a debate invitation from the JCPA, which is odd considering he needs as much attention as possible if he is to remain in the presidential race. However, he had an appearance Friday for Harvard democrats, and tonight to Columbia University's College of General Studies - he knows his case as a candidate is hopeless, so he is utilizing his role to speak to voters about the issues he is passionate about.
However, Mike Gravel is suing a pro-Hilary 527 in the federal court system. The organization ran an ad that "flagrantly violates the law" by using "phrases...or individual words, which in context can have no other reasonable meaning than to urge the election...of a particular candidate."

It really baffles me that Gravel has continued to run his campaign. Sure, he's wanting to use the attention to emphasize issues he passionate about, but what attention? I haven't heard anything about Gravel, and to be honest I forgot he was still in the race. Since "Gravel does indeed appear to be slowing his campaign," I'd say it's about time to end it all-together.
I find it extremely interesting that Gravel is still fighting for attention. Does it not speak badly of him for not letting it go so the party can begin focusing on the general election?
It's actually quite amazing that he's still going to keep at this run in the presidential election. I believe, like the other candidates, he needs to just -let it go.-
