TL;DR Summary
Concerned voters, including lawyers and individuals, have submitted "amicus curiae" briefs to the U.S. Supreme Court regarding the dispute over whether former President Donald Trump can serve a second term, citing Section 3 of the 14th Amendment. Some argue that it's too soon to decide Section 3's application, while others express concerns about fair elections and voting rights. The Supreme Court is set to hear arguments in the case, which could determine whether Trump's name can be listed on ballots nationwide for the primary and general elections.
