Group That Sued To Boot Trump From Colorado Ballot Wants Supreme Court Input
HuffPost
The Colorado voters who successfully axed Donald Trump from state primary ballots are asking the nation's highest court to weigh in.
The Colorado voters who successfully sued to keep former President Donald Trump off the ballot in the state’s 2024 presidential primary are now asking the U.S. Supreme Court to weigh in and settle the matter.
“This case is of utmost national importance,” the group of voters said in a Tuesday filing, asking the court to take up their case on an expedited schedule.
They joined the Colorado Republican Party in petitioning the high court to review the case, which rests on a clause of the Constitution’s 14th Amendment barring insurrectionists from office.
In December, Colorado’s state Supreme Court ruled 4-3 that Trump’s attempts to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election — an effort that included goading his supporters to attack the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021 — meant that he had violated that Reconstruction-era clause.
Trump is widely expected to fight Colorado’s ruling. He appealed a similar order keeping him from primary ballots in the state of Maine on Tuesday.
