U.S. Supreme Court agrees to review Trump's Colorado ballot eligibility

CGTN

The U.S. Supreme Court on Friday agreed to take up whether former President Donald Trump can be disqualified from appearing on Colorado's primary ballot, setting up a historic case ahead of the 2024 presidential election.

The Supreme Court's announcement came two days after Trump asked the court to invalidate a recent ruling by the Colorado Supreme Court, which removed him from the state's 2024 presidential primary ballot, citing a U.S. constitutional provision that prohibits people who have engaged in "insurrection" from federal office.

The Supreme Court's decision, expected to be made a speedy pace, could set guidelines nationwide that would determine how Colorado and other states handle the issue.
