Supreme Court to Decide Whether Trump Is Eligible for Colorado Ballot
The U.S. Supreme Court will be deciding on whether Donald J. Trump is eligible to appear on the Republican primary ballot in Colorado, potentially altering the course of the presidential election. This is due to Colorado’s top court previously ruling that Trump had engaged in insurrection in his efforts to overturn the 2020 election. The Supreme Court’s decision could not only affect Trump’s eligibility to run in the general election but also to hold office. The case will be argued on February 8, with the Colorado Republican Party urging a ruling by March 5. This case centers on Section 3 of the 14th Amendment, which bars officeholders who have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the U.S. Constitution.
