"Trump's Lawyer Appeals Illinois Ballot Case"

Donald Trump's lawyers are appealing a ruling that removed his name from the Illinois Republican primary ballot due to his involvement in the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot. The judge's decision was based on the "insurrection clause" of the 14th Amendment. This marks the third state to remove Trump from the ballot, with the decision pending until higher courts rule. Despite the potential minimal impact on Trump's nomination bid, the legal battle continues as his attorneys argue against the ruling.
