Colorado Supreme Court Bars Trump from State’s Primary Ballot over Capitol Attack

The Colorado Supreme Court ruled that former President Donald Trump is ineligible to appear on Colorado’s primary presidential ballot. The decision is due to his involvement in the January 6, 2021, attack on the US Capitol by his supporters.

This landmark 4-3 decision marks Trump as the first presidential candidate disqualified under a constitutional clause barring officials involved in “insurrection or rebellion” from holding office. While the ruling currently affects only the Colorado March 5 Republican primary, it could also impact Trump’s eligibility for the November 5 general election.

Donald Trump has announced his intention to appeal the ruling to the US Supreme Court. The Colorado court has postponed the effect of its decision until at least January 4, 2024, to allow time for this appeal.

Broader Context and National Significance

The lawsuit is a pivotal test case in a broader strategy to disqualify Trump from state ballots under the 14th Amendment. This amendment was introduced post-Civil War to prevent confederacy supporters from holding government office. The Colorado court determined that Trump’s actions on January 6 barred him from appearing on the ballot, a decision it described as entering “uncharted territory.”

Vivek went on to say that if other GOP candidates refuse, they are "endorsing this illegal maneuver."

The US Supreme Court, with a 6-3 conservative majority that includes three Trump appointees, will now potentially decide on Trump’s eligibility for another presidential term. The Trump campaign has criticized the decision as “undemocratic,” promising a swift appeal. Meanwhile, the Biden campaign has not commented on the ruling, overturning a lower court judge’s earlier finding.
