Savage move Cenk, I love it! Use there rage against them.
It would appear Cenk picked (or shortlisted) the field of play at the state level nice!
Cenk got blocked from the New Hampshire ballot as well. Article is paywalled. Here’s the most important part from it:
The next step in New Hampshire is for Uygur to go before the Ballot Law Commission to appeal (SOS) Scanlan’s decision. That could happen as early as next week. If the commission affirms Scanlan’s decision, then Uygur could sue. But he’s facing a very similar situation in Nevada and said he expects to get blocked elsewhere as well, so it remains to be seen whether and where his lawsuits may ultimately land.
Scanlan’s basis for rejecting Uygur’s declaration was actually rather mundane. He didn’t have to interpret Article II or determine whether Uygur is constitutionally ineligible for the presidency. Rather, he based his decision on a state law that empowers him to judge the “regularity” of a candidate’s declaration. Uygur had crossed out “natural born” and written “naturalized” before signing his declaration of candidacy, so Scanlan concluded the altered form didn’t comply with state law.
