Should Red States Remove Biden From 2024 Ballot?


A federal lawsuit in Virginia seeking to disqualify former President Donald Trump from the presidential primary ballot, based on allegations of insurrection related to the January 6, 2021, Capitol event, was dismissed. The judge, Leonie Brinkema, ruled that the plaintiffs lacked standing and failed to link their alleged injuries to Trump’s actions. This decision aligns with similar rulings in other states where courts have rejected attempts to remove Trump from ballots on similar grounds. However, contrasting actions were taken in Colorado and Maine, where Trump was removed from primary ballots citing the 14th Amendment's insurrection clause. 

 

The 14th Amendment, adopted post-Civil War, includes provisions to prevent individuals who participated in insurrections from holding office. In response to the Virginia ruling, Trump’s campaign emphasized his unbroken record in federal courts against 14th Amendment-related ballot challenges, accusing Democrats of a politically motivated campaign to influence the 2024 election and disenfranchise voters, noting Trump's lead in various polls.
