TL;DR Summary

The Maine House of Representatives rejected an impeachment attempt against Secretary of State Shenna Bellows over her decision to disqualify Donald Trump from the state’s primary ballot based on the 14th Amendment. Republican lawmakers argued that Trump should not be disqualified until found guilty of insurrection, while Bellows defended her decision as upholding the Constitution and the rule of law. The U.S. Supreme Court will decide on Trump's appeal, and Governor Janet Mills' office stated that the courts should determine if Trump violated the 14th Amendment.
