"Trump Challenges Maine Ballot Disqualification in Superior Court Appeal"

Former President Donald Trump has appealed a decision by Maine's Secretary of State Shenna Bellows to bar him from the state's Republican primary ballot, citing his involvement in the January 6 Capitol attack. The decision was based on Section 3 of the 14th Amendment, which prohibits individuals who have engaged in insurrection from holding office. This case, now heading to Maine’s Supreme Court, could potentially reach the U.S. Supreme Court, which has not yet ruled on this constitutional provision.
