Colorado secretary of state discusses ruling barring Trump from ballot
Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold joined Scripps News Tuesday to speak about Colorado's Supreme Court ruling disqualifying former President Donald Trump from the state's 2024 presidential primary ballot.
The state Supreme Court on Tuesday ruled that Trump was ineligible for the state's primary ballot because he violated the U.S. Constitution's insurrection clause.
Section 3 of the 14th Amendment reads that no person shall be elected president "who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same."
This is the first time in U.S. history that Section 3 of the 14th Amendment has been invoked in a presidential election.
