From the Bangkok Post, Thailand's Constitutional Court rules that parliamentcritter Pita Limjaroenrat did not own shares in a media business while applying to run for office, and thus may stay in office.

From Newsmax, according to the leader of a PAC supporting former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley's (R) presidential campaign, she "has a path" to the Republican nomination.  (I guess you can call him "the leader of the PAC".)

And from Axios, Republican Senators opposed to Trump face reality after the New Hampshire primary.
