A formal examination of whether North Carolina Rep. Madison Cawthorn is disqualified to run for Congress based on the U.S. Constitution won't occur because redistricting changes have moved the location of the district he sought to compete in, a state election official said Thursday.
But the disclosure doesn't mean additional candidate challenges this year against Cawthorn are snuffed out, according to a group that helped instigated them. The first-term Republican has been the focus of complaints filed by roughly a dozen voters living in what was supposed to be the 13th Congressional District that Cawthorn had filed to run in back in December.
