Election Interference: Here are the Four Colorado Justices Who Voted to Exclude Donald Trump from the 2024 Ballot

[Harpy Eagle]

No secretary of state can tell any political party who their nominees can be. Not can a secretary of state disqualify a duly chosen nominee in a federal election. They can only control the process.

There is no such thing as a Federal Election.

Also, I could not go down tomorrow and have my name put on the ballot under the "GO GATORS" political party

What in the world is that we aren't talking about immigration here troll

Trump was not indicted for "Insurrection."

Who in the Confederate States was indicted for Insurrection over their Rebellion

Trump was not found guilty before a jury of his peers for "insurrection."

Not a requirement of the 14th.

 

[justoffal]

Their ruling will go down like Kamala Harris on a position of power.

Yeah.... They can't do that unilaterally.
Once there is a conviction...it might be different. It's a publicity stunt nothing more.

 

[Slade3200]

True. As it should be.

True? What about Woodrow Wilson?

Hey dumbshit, this is my second attempt to confront your BS suggestion that you know something. Raise one merit, or as many as you like..............Go!

When interpreting the Constitution, we prefer a phrase's normal and ordinary usage over "secret or technical meanings that would not have been known to ordinary citizens in the founding generation."District of Columbia v. Heller, 554 U.S. 570, 577 (2008). Dictionaries from the time of the Fourteenth Amendment's ratification define "office" as a "particular duty, charge or trust conferred by public authority, and for a public purpose," that is "undertaken by . . . authority from government or those who administer it." Noah Webster, An American Dictionary of the English Language 689 (Chauncey A. Goodrich ed., 1853); see also 5 Johnson's English Dictionary 646 (J.E. Worcester ed., 1859) (defining "office" as "a publick charge or employment; magistracy");United States v. Maurice, 26 F. Cas. 1211, 1214 (C.C.D. Va. 1823) (No. 15,747) ("An office is defined to be 'a public charge or employment,' . . . ."). The Presidency falls comfortably within these definitions…..

There are tons of political parties. If you have enough people to vote for you and donate to your party you can get on the ballot too. Like the Green Party.

Marvin was accusing Biden of treason for his border policy. The link didn't copy to the clipboard at first. Link corrected. McConnell said all of those things Frankie.

Yes, there are tons of political parties, yet only a handful make the ballot, thus the state is choosing who can be on the ballot and who can not...the very thing you said they are not allowed to do

WW was too young to have participated in the Civil War.

I couldn't care less about what McConnel says! he is a huge part of the problem, and is compromised.

 

[postman]

It goes without saying. Nobody is guilty of anything until a conviction.

Take the case of Barack Obama and the charge he wasn't a natural born citizen.

Case dismissed for lack of standing, and lack of jurisdiction.

If states could choose who will be on the ballot then both republican and democratic states would start prohibiting candidates from opposing parties.

Geezus, WTF is the matter with you? That's not a merit, it's language to support "a merit" which you haven't brought up yet. Try thinking, for a change.

ILMAO........

"Why was the action taken".

Slade "because they can".

 

[Slade3200]

WW was too young to have participated in the Civil War.

What level of participation constitutes “engaging”? If you made a soldier a dinner

If he thought for a change, he’d vote R.

Then why can I not go down today and get my name on the ballot?

He was 9 when the Civil War ended. He didn’t engage in anything.

Every State has its own qualifications for including a person on the ballot. But none can be included if they do not meet that State's qualifications OR are not eligible according to the U.S. Constitution.

 

[Nostra]

This is a fucking no brainer for SCOTUS to flip.

There is no fucking conviction for sedition, so the 14th amendment DOES NOT FUCKING APPLY.

Good LORD, you cult fucks are something else.

Dimwingers claim there doesn’t need to be any charges or a conviction.
