Six Colorado voters have filed a lawsuit against former President Donald Trump, claiming he is disqualified from appearing on the state's ballots in the 2024 presidential election. Harvard constitutional law professor Laurence Tribe has shared his support for the lawsuit, which is being spearheaded by the government watchdog group Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW). Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold (D) has pushed back on Trump's argument that the effort to use the 14th Amendment's Disqualification Clause to keep him off the ballot is "election interference".
