Washington State Becomes the Sixth Jurisdiction To Reject a 14th Amendment Ballot Challenge

November 30, 2023

“Today’s dismissal in the Eastern District of Washington state makes six cases that have spectacularly failed in a partisan pursuit to interfere in the election and remove the right of the American people to vote for the candidate of their choosing. President Trump remains undefeated in these cynical and idiotic cases brought forth by Crooked Joe Biden’s cronies. Crooked Joe is a failed president running a failing campaign. The Democrats are running for cover and throwing everything they can at President Trump to stop his dominating campaign. They have tried to prosecute, bankrupt, smear, and outright remove President Trump’s civil rights to prevent his reelection. The American people see right through their schemes and President Trump is more resilient and determined than ever to win in 2024 and Make America Great Again.”

– Steven Cheung, Trump Campaign Spokesman

 

Precedent Is Set, President Trump Is Undefeated Against 14th Amendment Claims

 

Federal Court In Rhode Island Dismissed A Frivolous 14th Amendment Challenge From A Gadfly Presidential Candidate. “A federal court in Rhode Island on Monday dismissed the latest case attempting to keep former President Donald Trump off the state’s ballot over the attack on the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. It’s the fourth court this month to deliver a setback to anti-Trump activists who are trying to keep the GOP presidential front-runner off state ballots in 2024.” (Washington Times, 11/27/23)

 

Colorado State Court Ruled In Trump’s Favor, Placing Him On The 2024 Ballot. “Former President Donald Trump's name will remain on the Colorado 2024 presidential primary ballot, a judge ruled Friday. ‘The court orders the Secretary of State to place Donald J. Trump on the presidential primary ballot when it certifies the ballot on January 5, 2024,’ U.S. District Court Judge Sarah B. Wallace wrote in her ruling.” (Fox News, 11/17/23)

 

State Court In Michigan Dismissed 3 14th Amendment Ballot Challenges Brought By A Democrat Front Group. “A state judge in Michigan partly rejected an effort to disqualify former President Donald J. Trump from running for president in the state, ruling that Mr. Trump will remain on the ballot in the Republican primary and that the state’s top elections official does not have the authority alone to exclude him from the ballot.” (New York Times, 11/14/23)

 

Earlier 14th Amendment Cases In Minnesota And New Hampshire Have Also Been Dismissed. “Disqualification efforts have also been rejected in other states. The Minnesota Supreme Court dismissed a similar petition last week. And a case in New Hampshire was also dismissed last month.” (New York Times, 11/14/23)
