"Oregon Supreme Court Delays Decision on Trump Ballot Challenge, Awaits SCOTUS Ruling"

The Oregon Supreme Court declined to hear a bid to remove Donald Trump from the 2024 ballot based on the 14th Amendment's "insurrectionist ban," citing the ongoing litigation at the US Supreme Court. Lawsuits across the country have been filed by Trump critics who argue that the ban disqualifies him from holding future office due to his alleged role in the January 6 insurrection. Oregon election officials say the primary ballot names must be finalized by March 21, but the impact of potentially removing Trump from the primary ballot may be limited as Oregon's GOP contest is one of the final ones and the nomination race may be decided by then.
