"Trump Seeks Supreme Court Intervention in Colorado Primary Ballot Dispute"

Former President Donald Trump has petitioned the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn a Colorado Supreme Court ruling that disqualified him from the presidential ballot under the 14th Amendment's insurrection clause, related to his actions during the January 6, 2021, Capitol attack. Trump's legal team argues that the question of eligibility should be decided by Congress, not state courts, and that the presidency is not explicitly included in the positions barred by the clause. The case presents significant constitutional questions and could have major implications for the 2024 presidential election. The Supreme Court's decision to take up the case could be pivotal, reminiscent of its role in Bush v. Gore.
