"Supreme Court Faces Pressure as States and Scholars Weigh in on Trump's 2024 Ballot Battle"

Twenty-seven states have filed an amicus brief with the U.S. Supreme Court in support of former President Donald Trump, urging the court to keep him on the Colorado GOP presidential ballot for 2024. They argue that the Colorado Supreme Court's decision to label Trump an "insurrectionist" under the Fourteenth Amendment, which could disqualify him from holding office, could lead to national electoral chaos. The states contend that the ruling is vague, denies due process, and could undermine voters' confidence in the electoral process. The Supreme Court has issued an administrative stay and will hear arguments on the case, emphasizing the urgency of resolving the matter before the primaries and caucuses.
