Democrat Judge Rejects Trump’s Effort to Shut Down Lawsuit Seeking to Block Him From 2024 Ballot in Colorado – Trump Campaign Responds
A Democrat judge rejected Trump’s effort to shut down a lawsuit seeking to block him from the 2024 presidential ballot citing the 14th Amendment.
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.
Colorado District Judge Sarah Wallace on Friday ruled against Trump for the third time and allowed the lawsuit to proceed. If Trump’s other pending motion to toss the case gets rejected, the case will go to trial on October 30.
Judge Wallace ripped Trump’s arguments against the lawsuit.
