Former US President Donald Trump will be able to participate in the primary election to be held by the Republican Party in the state of Maine on March 5. The Maine Supreme Court stayed the execution of the decision to ban Trump from the primaries on March 5 due to his role in the raid on Congress on January 6, 2021. The Maine Supreme Court decided to wait for the US Supreme Court’s decision on Trump’s objection to the Colorado Supreme Court’s ban decision. With this decision, Trump’s name will be able to be on the ballot in the primary election on March 5.
In rejecting Trump’s objection to overturn the previous decision that removed him from the ballot in Maine, Judge Michaela Murphy said, “Because many of the issues raised in this case are likely to be resolved, narrowed, or rendered moot by the Supreme Court’s decision, the Court finds that rehearing the case is warranted.” “He concluded that it was.”
After the stay of execution against Trump, Judge Murphy sent the file in question back to Secretary of State Shenna Bellows.
The state of Maine decided on December 29 to remove Trump from the ballot in next year’s primaries. In his 34-page decision, State Secretary Bellows stated that it was inappropriate for Trump to take part in the election due to his actions that led to the Congress raid, and stated, “The US Constitution does not ignore an attack on the foundations of our government.”
TRUMP MEN TOOK THE DECISION TO THE SUPREME COURT!
On December 19, the Colorado Supreme Court ruled that Trump be removed from the ballot in the state in next year’s elections, in accordance with the 3rd paragraph of Article 14 of the constitution, due to his role in the Congress raid in 2021. The decision stated that since Trump was banned from the election, it would not be appropriate for him to be listed as a candidate in the primaries. Trump objected to the decision and appealed to the US Supreme Court.
Supreme Courts in Michigan, Minnesota, New Hampshire and Oregon rejected similar cases against Trump on procedural grounds.
Far-right groups and Trump supporters in the USA raided the Congress building on January 6, 2021, during the session where the victory of Joe Biden, who won the presidential election in November 2020, would be certified. During the violence that lasted for hours, 5 people lost their lives and hundreds were injured.
