Colorado Supreme Court Disqualifies President Trump From Appearing on Primary Ballot
The issue will head to the U.S. Supreme Court next.
The Colorado Supreme Court ruled on Tuesday that former President Donald Trump is ineligible to appear on the state's primary ballot.
However, the court stayed its ruling until Jan. 4, 2024, "pending any review by the U.S. Supreme Court."
If the U.S. Supreme Court agrees to review the issue by Jan. 4, the Colorado Secretary of State will be required to continued to include President Trump on the primary ballot. Otherwise, he will be removed from the primary ballot.
"We conclude that because President Trump is disqualified from holding the office of President under Section Three, it would be a wrongful act under the Election Code for the Secretary to list President Trump as a candidate on the presidential primary ballot," reads the majority opinion.
"Therefore, the Secretary may not list President Trump’s name on the 2024 presidential primary ballot, nor may she count any write-in votes cast for him," the order added, as Colorado state law does not permit write-in votes to be counted for ineligible candidates.

"Section Three encompasses the office of the Presidency and someone who has taken an oath as President. On this point, the district court committed reversible error," the order reads.
This makes Colorado the first and only state to disqualify President Trump from appearing on a state primary ballot.
President Trump has announced he will appeal the decision.
'Uncharted Territory' The court affirmed the lower court decision in part, ruling that Congress does not need to pass legislation in order to implement Section 3 of the 14th Amendment, and it is self-executing, and not beyond the jurisdiction of the courts.
As such, "the district court did not abuse its discretion in admitting portions of Congress’s January 6 Report into evidence at trial," nor err in its ruling that the Jan. 6, 2021, events constituted an "insurrection," the order added.
The Colorado Supreme Court ruled that President Trump's speech on and before Jan. 6, 2021, "was not protected by the First Amendment" because it was "speech were likely to incite...
