"Colorado Voters Seek to Bar Trump from Ballot Over Jan. 6 Insurrection"

TL;DR Summary
Colorado voters are urging the Supreme Court to remove former President Donald Trump from their state's Republican primary ballot, citing his role in inciting the Jan. 6 Capitol attack as grounds for disqualification under the 14th Amendment's Section 3. Trump's legal team argues that the provision does not apply to presidential candidates and that only Congress can enforce it, warning of chaos if Trump is disqualified. The case raises questions about who can be barred from running for office and could have implications for other states.
