The State Rights and Free Trade Party, commonly known as the Nullifier Party, was a political party in Antebellum South Carolina. It was one of two main political parties in South Carolina during the 1830s, alongside the Union Party. The party defended the legal theory of nullification, which held that states could unilaterally declare federal laws unconstitutional.
