Wyclef Jean is not giving up on his bid to become president of Haiti, even though he was deemed ineligible on Friday by the nation’s electoral council.

It’s been speculated the singer and activist was left off the list of 19 candidates because of residency issues.
Jean told the Associated Press today that his lawyers will appeal the electoral decision in a Haitian court tomorrow.

“Everything is correct,” Jean said, referring to an election document, adding he and his aides “feel that what is going on here has everything to do with Haitian politics.”
