Supreme Court Called Upon to Decide Whether Former President Donald Trump is Constitutionally Eligible to Appear on Colorado’s Republican Primary Ballot

Four Colorado voters have asked the Supreme Court to decide whether former President Donald Trump is constitutionally eligible to appear on the state's Republican primary ballot. The appeal follows Maine's Secretary of State barring Trump from running for the presidency under the rarely used Section 3 of the 14th Amendment. The Colorado voters believe the case is of "utmost importance" and warrants quick action, as it revolves around the Constitution's insurrection clause and whether Trump incited the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol. The Supreme Court's decision could have a major impact on the Republican Party's future.
