Supreme Court hears arguments in Trump ballot eligibility case

The Supreme Court took up the Colorado case that Donald Trump is ineligible to appear on the state’s ballot because of the January 6th Capitol riot. Trump attorney Jonathan Mitchell argued that the 14th Amendment does not apply in this case. Section 3 is referred to as the insurrection clause and attorney Jason Murray, representing Colorado voters, focused on the former president’s actions. With Colorado’s primary scheduled for March 5th, the high court has signaled it will try to act quickly.
