One state, a rouge blue state, no less, cannot decide for the whole of country who we can vote for.
The U.S. Supreme Court issued their ruling on the case that sought to bar former President Donald Trump from appearing on primary and general election ballots for the 2024 presidential election.
The Supreme Court delivered a unanimous opinion on the Colorado ballot ruling.

- The Supreme Court has ruled in former President Donald Trump’s favor, saying Colorado erred when he was removed from the ballot.
- Colorado holds primary votes on Tuesday, but Trump’s name remained on the ballot while the case was being litigated.
Epoch Times: The Supreme Court, in an unusual Sunday update to its schedule, didn’t specify what ruling it would issue. However, the justices on Feb. 8 heard arguments in the former president’s appeal of a ruling in Colorado and are due to issue their own decision.
The March 3 announcement said the opinion would be posted online at 10 a.m. Washington time. “The court will not take the bench,” it only said on its website.
Late last year, the Colorado Supreme Court ruled that President Trump is disqualified from appearing on ballots in Colorado, citing an interpretation of the U.S. Constitution’s 14th Amendment provision that stipulates that candidates who engaged in an “insurrection or rebellion” against the United States should be prevented from holding office. Maine’s Democratic secretary of state made a similar decision days later, and a judge in Illinois recently issued a similar ruling to prevent his appearance on ballots.
The amendment was drafted more than 150 years ago, after the Civil War, and the court was the first to invoke it. However, that ruling and the two others are on hold pending the Supreme Court decision.

Update 10:30 am: Daily Caller:
he Supreme Court ruled Monday that former President Donald Trump cannot be removed from Colorado’s 2024 ballot.
The Colorado Supreme Court found Trump ineligible for the state’s ballot in December, ruling he was disqualified under Section 3 of the 14th Amendment. The Civil-war era provision bars individuals who took an oath to the Constitution and then “engaged in insurrection” from holding office.
“Because the Constitution makes Congress, rather than the States, responsible for enforcing Section 3 against federal officeholders and candidates, we reverse,” the court’s ruling stated.
A group of Colorado voters, backed by the left-wing group Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, sued to remove Trump in September, arguing his role in “recruiting, inciting and encouraging a violent mob” on Jan. 6, 2021 was disqualifying. Maine and, just last week, Illinois, followed by also finding Trump ineligible.
Over 60 challenges have been filed in various states challenging Trump’s eligibility for the ballot, according to court documents.
