You missed Perry, though he was a candidate for so short it would have been easy to forget.  But weren't there more than 12 Republicandidates?
You also missed Lindsey Graham and George Pataki.  I think I'm still short, though.

I don't know that I missed them so much as I didn't include anyone who dropped out prior to the primaries.  Apparently you wanted an exhaustive list.  OK, here goes:

Pataki, Jindal, Graham, Perry and Walker all withdrew before the primaries, so I didn't count them.  I also didn't count Jack Fellure or Andy Martin who filed as candidates with the Federal Election Commission.  Also didn't count Peter Messina, who is on the ballot in Louisiana, New Hampshire, and Idaho or Tim Cook who is on the ballot in Louisiana and New Hampshire. Walter Iwachiw is on the ballot in Florida and New Hampshire.

Others who announced a bid and filed with the FEC were Dennis Michael Lynch, Mark Everson (former IRS Commissioner) and Jimmy McMillan, the chair and leader of the Rent is Too Damn High party.

Those who apparently tested the waters by floating the idea publicly, but who did NOT file with the FEC included:

    Kelly Ayotte, U.S. Senator from New Hampshire since 2011; Attorney General of New Hampshire 2004–2009
    Michele Bachmann, U.S. Representative from Minnesota 2007–2015; presidential candidate in 2012

    Sam Brownback, Governor of Kansas since 2011; U.S. Senator from Kansas 1996–2011; presidential candidate in 2008
    Herman Cain, President of the National Restaurant Association 1996–1999; chairman and CEO of Godfather's Pizza 1986–1996; presidential candidate in 2012
    Ken Cuccinelli, Attorney General of Virginia 2010–2014; nominee for Governor of Virginia in 2013
    Jim DeMint, U.S. Senator from South Carolina 2005–2013; U.S. Representative from South Carolina 1999–2005
    Mary Fallin, Governor of Oklahoma since 2011; U.S. Representative from Oklahoma 2007–2011; Lieutenant Governor of Oklahoma 1995–2007
    Nikki Haley, Governor of South Carolina since 2011
    Steve King, U.S. Representative from Iowa since 2003
    Susana Martinez, Governor of New Mexico since 2011
    Bob McDonnell, Governor of Virginia 2010–2014; Attorney General of Virginia 2006–2009
    Cathy McMorris Rodgers, U.S. Representative from Washington since 2005
    Ted Nugent, musician and gun rights activist from Michigan
    Sarah Palin, Governor of Alaska 2006–2009; 2008 vice-presidential nominee
    Mike Rogers, U.S. Representative from Michigan 2001–2015

    Rick Scott, Governor of Florida since 2011; former CEO and co-founder of Columbia Hospital Corporation

I don't pay much attention at this stage of the election, but I've never heard of Gilmore...

Wow, I wonder which candidate will get the benefit of the 7 votes that he leaves on the table?  ::)

Re: In case you liked Carly Fiorina - jacketree - 02-12-2016

And I am sad to disappoint my supporter(s) by announcing that I am suspending my unannounced candidacy until further notice to spend more time with my family. Or less as the case may be.

Just this.

Too bad Gene missed a letter. "Committee" or "committed" both work for me.  8)
