The Michigan Court of Appeals has ruled that former President Donald Trump can remain on the state's 2024 GOP primary ballot, rejecting an appeal filed by a watchdog group on behalf of Michigan voters. The court stated that the challenge was not "ripe" on procedural grounds and did not specifically rule on whether Trump fell under the disqualification clause of the 14th Amendment.

Minnesota Supreme Court Allows Trump on Primary Ballot Despite Challenges

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.
