"Cowboys for Trump' Founder Pins Hopes on Supreme Court Ruling for Ballot Eligibility"

TL;DR Summary
Couy Griffin, a founder of "Cowboys for Trump" and a fervent supporter of Donald Trump, is hoping that a Supreme Court ruling allowing Trump to stay on the ballot in Colorado will benefit him as well. Griffin was criminally convicted for his involvement in the Jan. 6 Capitol attack and subsequently removed from his elected position in New Mexico based on the same 14th Amendment section cited in Trump's case. The Supreme Court's decision in Trump's case could impact Griffin's appeal, but legal experts suggest that even if the ruling favors Trump, Griffin may still face obstacles in holding any government position, including appointed ones.
