Colorado Supreme Court's Decision on Trump's Ballot Eligibility Awaited

TL;DR Summary
The Colorado Supreme Court held a two-hour debate on whether Donald Trump's actions during the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol disqualify him from running for president in 2024. While some justices seemed to agree that the attack constituted an insurrection, they gave little indication of how they will rule. The court acknowledged that its decision may be appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court. Trump's lawyer argued that the violence did not meet the criteria for an insurrection, but several justices questioned this assertion. The court's ruling will have implications for similar challenges to Trump's eligibility in other states.
