The Post and Courier of Charleston, South Carolina, has this editorial. It recommends that the 180 or so Democrats and Republicans who were kept off their party’s primary ballots should submit petitions to qualify as independent candidates.

The editorial says the petition deadline is July 9, but actually, according to the law and the South Carolina Election Commission, it is July 16. The law says the deadline is July 15 but that is a Sunday, so the deadline becomes noon on July 16.
