COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Now that the Iowa caucuses are over, presidential contenders are looking to upcoming primaries, including Ohio's.
Candidates are systematically meeting today's deadline to get their names on the March 4th primary ballots in Ohio.
Leading the pack is Senator Barack Obama, who filed his candidacy petitions Wednesday, ahead of his victory among Iowa Democrats.
On the Republican side, former senator and actor Fred Thompson was the first to get his petitions and signatures in.
A candidate must have 1,000 valid signatures among up to 3,000 submitted from members of his or her own party.
