A North Carolina newspaper issued a scathing editorial slamming Madison Cawthorn for his “despicable rhetoric” and blaming the Republican Party for enabling him.
, anyone who has previously held an office where they’ve sworn an oath to the United States is barred from holding office again if they’ve “engaged in insurrection or rebellion against” the country. That prohibition can only be lifted if two-thirds of both houses of Congress vote to do so.
Voters in Cawthorn’s district are asking the North Carolina State Board of Elections to deem Cawthorn as an insurrectionist, and thus restrict him from running for office.
After the 2020 election, Cawthorn also attended dozens of meetings with Trump campaign officials to discuss ways that Trump could overturn the results, the North Carolina voters said in their complaint.
