Oregon Supreme Court Refuses to Remove Trump from Primary Ballot

The Oregon Supreme Court has declined to hear a challenge that sought to prevent Donald Trump from appearing on the 2024 Republican primary and general election ballot in Oregon, citing the Five voters' request based on section 3 of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution. The Court stated that the Oregon Secretary of State had no authority under Oregon law to consider Trump's qualification to serve as President at the primary election stage, and the presidential primary ballots must be finalized by March 21, 2024.

"Chris Christie's Exit from 2024 Republican Primary: What's Next for the GOP?"

Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie's exit from the 2024 Republican primary may benefit former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley, who is projected to gain support from Christie's backers in New Hampshire. Despite Christie's departure, front-runner Donald Trump maintains solid support among GOP voters. Haley's recent momentum in polls and notable debate performances have positioned her as a strong contender, but she faces challenges in winning over registered Republicans. Christie's withdrawal is not expected to significantly impact the primary race beyond New Hampshire, and his next steps remain uncertain.

Michigan Court Upholds Trump's Spot on 2024 Primary Ballot

The Michigan Court of Appeals has rejected challenges to former President Donald Trump's inclusion on the state's 2024 Republican primary ballot, dismissing arguments that his involvement in the Capitol attack disqualifies him. The court cited Michigan law, stating that the decision of who appears on the primary ballot is determined by the political parties and individual candidates. The court did not address whether Trump falls under the insurrection clause of the 14th Amendment. The decision is similar to a ruling by the Minnesota Supreme Court, and it is likely that one of the lawsuits will be appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court.
