Cenk Uygur Drops His South Carolina Ballot Access Case

On February 27, Democratic presidential candidate Cenk Uygur dropped his appeal of his South Carolina ballot access case. It had been pending in the Fourth Circuit. Uygur v South Carolina and McMaster, 24-1052.

Uygur was born in Turkey. He was kept off the South Carolina Democratic presidential primary because he is not a natural born citizen. He had argued that the portion of Article II, setting out the national-born qualification, was no longer in force because the Fourteenth Amendment Equal Protection Clause had superceded it.
