The trial over an effort in Minnesota to keep former President Donald Trump off of the 2024 ballot began Thursday at the state Supreme Court as a similar case continued in Colorado.
The lawsuits in both states allege Trump should be barred from the 2024 ballot for his conduct leading up to the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the U.S. Capitol. They argue Trump’s efforts to overturn the 2020 election results violated Section 3 of the 14th Amendment to the Constitution, which says no one who has “engaged in insurrection or rebellion” after swearing an oath to support and defend the Constitution can hold office.
A group of Minnesota voters, represented by the election reform group Free Speech for People, sued in September to remove Trump from the state ballot under the 14th Amendment provision. The petitioners include former Minnesota Secretary of State Joan Growe and former state Supreme Court Justice Paul H. Anderson.
Say that in February.
MN boy here. I’ll take -10 over 100 degrees any day.
Yeah… I’ll take…. 60’s and sunshine….
And when it’s at either extreme… I can easily imagine being somewhere else. Then, reality kicks in and I realize everywhere has its shitty weather.
I live in this state, winter is my second favorite season
so do I winter is my second most hated season. (Okay, I love spring and autumn. 60’s and sunshine. for 2 weeks out of the year.)
