Democrats Urge Clarence Thomas To Recuse Himself In Trump Ballot Case
HuffPost
Virginia Thomas, the conservative justice's wife, has worked to keep Trump in office.
House Democrats are urging Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas to recuse himself from any decisions related to former President Donald Trump’s place on Colorado state primary ballots — a case the high court could soon take up.
“Your impartiality is reasonably questioned by substantial numbers of fair-minded members of the public,” a group of eight lawmakers told Thomas in a three-page letter Thursday.
Colorado’s Supreme Court ruled last month that Trump could not legally appear on state primary ballots due to his efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election.
Trump appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court earlier this week. At least four of the nine justices must agree for the case to be added to the court’s docket.
The group of voters who sued to keep Trump off the ballot also asked the high court to weigh in, as did the Colorado Republican Party.
