Trump's Colorado ballot controversy fuels nomination drive and voter division

The Colorado Supreme Court ruled that Donald Trump is barred from the state's ballot due to his involvement in the "insurrection," a decision that could be overturned by the conservative-led U.S. Supreme Court. This ruling is expected to fuel Trump's campaign for the 2024 Republican nomination, inflaming his political base, strengthening his argument of being a victim of a partisan legal process, and boosting his fundraising efforts. The decision may also help Democrats appeal to independent voters who believe Trump engaged in insurrection. Despite the ruling, Trump remains the frontrunner for the Republican nomination, and the state of Colorado is not seen as competitive in the general election.
