#3 I'm sure he's rolling up his 'independent' run after losing the primary. That seems to be the behavior pattern of these creatures. States need to implement a law to prohibit primary losers from getting their names on the ballot if they lose. Run up front in the party or run independent outside of the primary vote to begin with.
