Ted Cruz risks primary disqualification in New Jersey resulting from charges of ballot access fraud. A primary ballot disqualification hearing is scheduled by the Secretary of State for Monday, April 11 at 9:00 a.m. in Mercerville, New Jersey.
Washington D.C. Law Professor Victor Williams charges that Ted Cruz fraudulently certified his constitutional eligibility for office to gain ballot access. Williams demands that Cruz be disqualified from several late-primary ballots: "Cruz committed ballot access fraud in each state when he falsely swore that he was a 'natural born' American citizen." Cruz was born in Calgary, Canada and held his resulting Canadian citizenship until May 2014. Cruz is a naturalized (not natural born) American citizen.
Williams' fraud charges had quick effect in New Jersey. Rather than accepting Cruz's ballot petition when filed last week, the Secretary of State ( Kim Guadagno) scheduled the unusual Administrative Law hearing for April 11. The Canadian-born Cruz must prove that he did not falsely certify his eligibility for office.
Cruz's ballot eligibility is also being challenged in California, Maryland, Montana, Nebraska, Oregon, South Dakota, and Washington.

Interesting tidbit ping.
Ah Christe is blocking the GW Bridge again.
And I risked death by eating bacon this morning.
Lookee here ping
BTDT
I don’t like Cruz nor would vote for him but isn’t this settled law?
Mother was American and he was born overseas (I know, Canada) is still a natural citizen as defined by Federal law and upheld by lower courts....
Trumpies in panic mode...
Ping to 7.
Not just Christie.
**Cruz’s ballot eligibility is also being challenged in California, Maryland, Montana, Nebraska, Oregon, South Dakota, and Washington.**
There are naturalized citizens originally from Nicaragua who every four years get on the Presidential ballot in Washington State.
I expected better from Texas.
Yes, a juicy little morsel. eh!
Noticed that little tidbit earlier. What will lyin’ Ted do to beat this rap? Say he was hatched?
My take from the article was it is not a question of whether or not he is a natural born citizen; it is a question of whether or not he committed fraud in answering the question untruthfully or not. That is a pretty big distinction.

Just a preview of what would happen if Cruz was on the ticket. Of course the Dems would question his eligibility in all fifty states.
And if he manages to get ( not win) a nomination just wait until the democrat Soros- funded lawsuits begin
??? Could you be a bit less cryptic? What are you trying to say?
