Washington (CNN) -- Call them "unicorners." A liberal group says it has collected more than 19,000 e-mails requesting Arizona officials to confirm Mitt Romney is not a unicorn.

Without such proof, the group Left Action argues with tongue in cheek, Romney may indeed be a unicorn -- his dark mane hiding a horn -- and therefore ineligible to be on the presidential ballot in November.

The farcical campaign mimics efforts by so-called "birthers," and some top supporters of certain Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney, to continually raise the already-settled issue of whether President Barack Obama meets the Constitution's requirements for citizenship.

"I feel like we've tried logic with the birthers for too long," Left Action founder John Hlinko told CNN on Wednesday. "Now it's time to take their arguments to the logical extreme to show how absurd they are."
