Trump's increased difficulty! One more state, declared ineligible for presidential elections, will appeal to the Supreme Court
Donald Trump news | After Colorado, former US President Donald Trump has also received a big blow in the state of Maine. Maine's top election official has disqualified herself from the state's primary ballot for next year's presidential election.
Maine became the second state
Maine is the second state to bar Trump from running for his alleged role in the January 6, 2021 attack on the US Capitol. Maine Secretary of State Shenai Bellows said that 2024 Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump sparked outrage in 2020 by spreading false claims about fraud and then urging his supporters to march on the US Capitol to prevent MPs from certifying their votes. This action against Trump has been done under the Sedition Clause of the US Constitution.
Trump can also challenge this decision in the Supreme Court
The decision came as a group of former Maine lawmakers demanded that Donald Trump be disqualified based on a provision of the US Constitution that bars people from re-serving office in the US if they engage in rebellion or sedition after taking the oath of office. Donald Trump may appeal the Maine Secretary of State's decision to the state Supreme Court.
