South Carolina Holds Primary Today, June 12, Yet Candidate Eligibility Battles Still Not Entirely Resolved

South Carolina holds its Republican and Democratic primaries (for office other than President) on Tuesday, June 12. According to this story, there is still no decision on whether Paul Thurmond, a Republican running for State Senate, 41st district, is eligible. Presumably the decision will come down very soon.

If Thurmond is found ineligible by a state court, then the Republican Party will have no nominee for the 41st district seat, because all of Thurmond’s Republican opponents have already been disqualified.
