JUST IN: Minnesota Supreme Court Flatly Rejects Bid to Block Trump From Primary Ballot After Chief Justice Dresses Down Leftist Lawyer
The Minnesota Supreme Court flatly rejected a bid to block President Trump from the primary ballot.
Minnesota’s high court last Thursday held a hearing on whether Trump could be blocked from the 2024 ballot.
8 Minnesota voters filed a lawsuit citing the 14th Amendment to keep Trump off the ballot. A leftist lawyer appeared before the Minnesota Supreme Court last Thursday to argue the state has the authority to block Trump from the 2024 ballot.
The legal theories are based on Section 3 of the US Constitution’s 14th Amendment which states public officials who have “engaged in insurrection or rebellion against” the US may be disqualified from public office.
Trump has not been charged with engaging in insurrection or rebellion against the United States.
