Colorado Supreme Court bans Trump from running for president

    The Colorado Supreme Court has banned Trump from running in the 2024 presidential election in the state.

    .

    The reason is the storming of the Capitol on January 6, 2021, when Trump supporters seized the US Congress.

    The decision only affects Colorado’s Republican primary on March 5, but it could affect Trump’s standing in the state in the Nov. 5 general election.

    The situation will presumably determine the contours of the situation in the US presidential elections in 2024. It is noted that the Colorado Supreme Court was the first in the country to find that Section 3 of the 14th Amendment, which disqualifies people who engage in insurrection against the Constitution after swearing an oath to support it, applies to Trump. The politician’s opponents are guided by the same argument, writes journalists from The New York Times.

    The Trump campaign immediately said it would appeal the decision to the US Supreme Court.

    The decision means the former president will not be on the ballot in Colorado during the March Republican primary and the November joint election. The verdict is based on the 14th Amendment to the Constitution: it prohibits those who participated in the rebellion from running for office. Four out of seven judges voted for the ruling.

    The decision will take effect on January 4, 2024 and will not be binding on other states. The judges stressed that Trump’s lawyers could appeal to the US Supreme Court. In this case, it will not take effect in Colorado until the verdict, but will apply to all states if Trump loses.

    Presidential elections in the United States are conducted by each state independently. The rules by which voting is organized and the criteria by which candidates appear on the ballot are determined independently by the states.

    Similar lawsuits against Trump have been filed in Minnesota and Michigan, with trial courts in both states refusing to bar the former president from running again.

    In Colorado, the trial court agreed on the merits of the case, but found that Trump should be allowed to participate in the election because the presidential oath of office differs from that mentioned in the 14th Amendment. The state Supreme Court found the difference to be immaterial.

    In 2020, Joe Biden received 55% of the vote in Colorado. A Republican presidential candidate hasn’t won Colorado since 2004.
