The U.S. Supreme Court handed down a unanimous ruling today, declaring that states are not permitted to remove Presidential Candidate Donald Trump from primary ballots. The decision marks a significant development in the ongoing legal battles surrounding Trump's eligibility to appear on state ballots.
The ruling directly impacts a Colorado case where Trump was facing removal from the ballot. The Supreme Court's decision overturns the Colorado ruling that sought to exclude Trump and is expected to have broader implications, potentially putting an end to a similar case in Illinois that was initiated just last week.
This decision by the Supreme Court sets a precedent regarding the authority of states in managing primary ballots and reinforces the rights of candidates to appear on ballots despite legal challenges.
