TL;DR Summary

New Hampshire Republicans are embroiled in a dispute over an attempt to prevent former President Donald Trump from appearing on the 2024 ballot. Some legal scholars argue that Trump should be disqualified under the 14th Amendment due to his alleged involvement in the Capitol insurrection. Bryant "Corky" Messner, a Republican attorney, is questioning Trump's eligibility and wants the courts to address the issue. However, the chair of the state GOP, Chris Ager, insists that Trump will be included on the ballot, stating that efforts to limit primary voters' options have no basis. The filing deadline for the New Hampshire primary is approaching, and both Messner and Ager have contacted the Secretary of State for clarification.
