Former President Donald Trump faces yet another ballot access battle in Maine on Friday, while in California, Lt. Gov. Eleni Kounalakis is demanding the Secretary of State explore barring Trump from the 2024 ballot, citing Colorado’s unprecedented move to boot him over January 6th. Trump attorney Scott Gessler argues states lack authority to deny ballot access per the Constitution. Jonathan Turley blasts Colorado’s ruling as “hands down the most anti-democratic” he’s seen. Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick suggests Biden be denied ballot access too over his immigration policies. Dem pundits accuse Trump supporters of “standing with Confederates.” With more states poised to follow Colorado’s lead, the stakes are sky-high.
