"Colorado Supreme Court Bars Trump from 2024 Ballot"
The Colorado Supreme Court has disqualified former President Donald Trump from the state's presidential primary ballot for the 2024 election, citing the U.S. Constitution's insurrection clause. This marks the first time Section 3 of the 14th Amendment has been used to disqualify a presidential candidate. The court's decision, which is likely to be appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court, sets up a potential showdown to determine whether Trump can remain in the race. The ruling comes after a district court judge initially found that Trump incited the January 6 attack on the Capitol but could not be barred from the ballot. The Colorado Supreme Court's decision could potentially influence other courts and election officials to exclude Trump from must-win states.
