Trump Removed from Maine Primary Ballot

[Lastamender]

Never said there was Pooky. Pence is the one who said "“I think it’s important that the American people know what happened in the days before January 6,” Pence said. “President Trump demanded that I use my authority as vice president presiding over the count of the Electoral College to essentially overturn the election by returning or literally rejecting votes. I had no authority to do that.”

Do you doubt him?

For those who might doubt him, Pence urged them to “read the indictment.”

Expedite that trial!

That is not what Trump asked him to do.

 

[Lastamender]

You celebrate every time power is abused and the rule of law is ignored. POS.

 

[Nostra]

In what way do you MAGAt morons imagine Trump's due process rights were violated?

Asked and answered, several times.

Please try to keep up vermin.

Trump is Back on the Ballot in Maine - Was Never Really Off it. Not Yet. - Granite Grok

Maine is in the news again after its secretary of state – a Trump-hating-partisan Democrat decided she had the authority to tell the Republican party (a private corporation) who could be on their primary ballot. That was the big news. Shenna Bellows. Trump kicked off Maine Ballot. Or, is he? No...

granitegrok.com

Major media is still reporting that Trump is off the ballot, so I went to the Maine Sec. of State for clarification. I found it here – at the end of her “decision” claiming Trump was off the ballot.




Oh well, thread closed. Or you people could keep on lying about it.

You cut off the very ending of the statement:

"or the time to appeal has expired."

Not taking any action because this decision will certainly be appealed only makes sense. But if it's not appealed then the decision takes effect.

 

[scruffy]

The courts are the end of the road in this country.

Fucking sheeple.

THE PEOPLE are the end of the road.

WTF is the matter with you? Never take a civics class?

Not even close, Simp.

Nice try.

ABCNEWS.com : Secretary of State Rejects Recount Appeal

- George W. Bush appeared to win a major battle last night when the Florida Secretary of State rejected three contested counties' appeals for more time to recount the votes by hand and have the amended totals included in the final tally for the presidential election.

Florida Secretary of State rejected three contested counties’ appeals for more time to recount the votes by hand

Certified results from Florida’s 67 counties announced Tuesday night by Harris showed George W. Bush with 2,910,492 votes and Gore with 2,910,192, a 300-vote lead for the Texas governor.

You've haven't answered it satisfactorily. You strawmaning morons keep referring to criminal due process. Were either of these judgements criminal trials with criminal penalties? Your due process for a criminal trial is different than your due process for a civil trial or in this case, your due process to determine whether you are eligible, as per the Constitution, to appear on the ballot or hold the office of President of the United States.

lol
A whole lot of MAGAs who stormed the Capitol found out different.

 

[meaner gene]

And yet, he was found innocent under our system. Why do you Dimwinger fascists always want to ignore reality to push you terminal TDS induced delusions, vermin?

Trump was never found innocent, that was only a "presumption"

You do know the different between presumption and conclusion?

Well, maybe not.

Already had recounts, Simp. Not a single vote was thrown out by the SOS.

Florida election law clearly spells out a deadline for recounts, and requires a recount of the entire state, not just a few cherry picked counties by Gore.

You lose again.

Your headline should read:

LOL

Aww, Dumbfuck's ignorance in all caps. It's as if he's screaming how retarded he is.

Dumbfuck, who in Maine is being deprived of their right to vote because of this decision?

 

[meaner gene]

Actually Trump is presumed innocent and hasn't been convicted of sedition.

No different than Ken Lay is presumed innocent, and not convicted of six counts of securities and wire fraud.

Insurrection is a federal crime, dumbass. It isn't a state civil issue.

 

[BlindBoo]

That by itself does not. It has to be done violently.

Debatable.

"Specifically, Mr. Trump's claim that insurrection must be “violent enough, potent enough, long enough, and organized enough to be considered a significant step on the way to rebellion,” id. at 39, is both ambiguous as a standard and poorly supported by the evidence he cites. Accord Anderson, 2023 CO 63, 183. An insurrection need not involve military-style weaponry, see Case of Fries, 9 F. Cas. 940 (C.CD. Pa. 1800) (“[Military weapons” like “guns and swords” “are not necessary to make such insurrection or rising amount to levying of war”), involve bloodshed, see In re Charge to Grand Jury, 62 F. 828,"

"Nonetheless, even if insurrection under Section Three were so limited, the evidence here shows that the events of January 6, 2021 meet that standard. As demonstrated by videos and ‘documentary evidence in the record, a large and angry crowd entered the U.S. Capitol nearmidday on January 6 and assaulted the capitol police officers charged with defending it, vandalized and Stole property, and ransacked offices."

PP 24 and 25.

There were two civil war cases of people removed from their office because of the 14th. One was done by the county election board, the other by the postmaster general. An appeal of the removal (due process) had the courts uphold the removals.

 

[Curried Goats]

Insurrection is a federal crime, dumbass. It isn't a state civil issue.

Says who? You just made that up. Just because it is a federal crime doesn't mean it can't also be a political issue, as it would be under Impeachment proceedings. Or civil matter, as it would be if your insurrection lead to deaths or injuries you could be held financially liable for. Or in this case, constitutionally disqualifying from holding office or appearing on a ballot.

 

[Lesh]

Well, only if you believe in "Innocent until proven guilty," which meaner gene definitely doesn't

Which would engender taking away someone’s freedom.

This is not that

The confederate soldiers that the 14th was specifically written for? They had a congressional act and Presidential decree finding they participated in the Civil War, Simp.

Does Trump have those against him?

Link please

The precedent for 14th Amendment disqualification - CREW | Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington

Only 12 since 1868. 6 were in the confederacy.

The New Mexico one should be appealed to SCOTUS.

It is already on their docket.

Votes were thrown out

On Wednesday, Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach, met the 2 p.m. ET deadline set by Florida Secretary of State Katherine Harris for each to explain why new hand-count tallies submitted after the deadline should replace earlier machine recount totals.
