Minnesota Supreme Court Allows Trump on Primary Ballot Despite Challenges

TL;DR Summary
The Minnesota Supreme Court has rejected an attempt to block Donald Trump from the state's GOP primary ballot based on the 14th Amendment's "insurrection clause." However, the court stated that the challengers can try again to block him from the general election ballot if he wins the Republican nomination. The court ruled that there is no state statute prohibiting a major political party from supporting an ineligible candidate. Similar challenges are ongoing in Colorado and Michigan, and experts anticipate appeals that could reach the US Supreme Court.
