"Trump Fights Maine Ballot Exclusion as Ramaswamy's 2024 Campaign Faces Speculation"

Former President Donald Trump has appealed a decision by Maine's Secretary of State Shenna Bellows that declared him ineligible for the state's 2024 Republican primary ballot. Bellows' ruling, based on Trump's actions surrounding the January 6 attack, is not being enforced pending court decisions. The appeal argues bias and lack of due process in the ruling process. This case adds to a series of state-level legal challenges regarding Trump's eligibility, with varying outcomes across the country.
