The 4 Must-Follow Lawsuits Challenging Cruz’s Presidential Eligibility
Donald Trump has a habit of causing controversy, and his remarks on Ted Cruz‘s Presidential eligibility have been no exception, reports Matt Strong on LawNews.com. The Texas senator now faces several lawsuits across the country — in Illinois, Texas, New York and Utah — that are bringing the candidate unwelcome distractions.
“Since January 17, Trump has made inflammatory threats of litigation over Cruz’s Canadian-birth and the question of whether Cruz is a ‘natural born citizen’ five times,” the site reports.
And others have gone so as to frame their challenges as lawsuits. “Of the litany of filed suits, four in particular pass muster, either by creatively suing a state election board, scaring Cruz’s campaign into a response, or originating from lawyers in pursuit of more than political gamesmanship or political frivolity,” Strong wrote.
