That is the best example because 14 Sec 3 is also a eligibility clause.

Since Section 3 of the 14th Amendment is a eligibility clause, to over turn it would also overturn the age and having to be an American clause. It also overturns States Rights and Federalizes the entire nation.

My guess us the Supreme Court agrees or they defer to the Colorado Supreme Court decision.

Colorado will still elect Biden. Haley will be the Republican Primary winner.

That is exactly what the title says.

Sorry, Texas, your State election laws forbids it.

Texas Political Party Nomination

A presidential candidate nominated by a political party may be placed on the general election ballot. Political parties must certify the names of the candidates for president and vice-president and the names of the presidential electors before the later of the 71st day before the presidential election, or the first business day after the date of final adjournment of a party’s national nominating convention. A political party that is authorized or required to nominate candidates by primary election is entitled to have its nominee for president placed on the general election ballot. A political party is authorized to nominate by primary if the party’s nominee for governor in the most recent gubernatorial general election received at least 2% of the total number of votes received by all candidates for governor in the election; a political party is required to nominate by primary if that candidate received more than 20% of the vote. A political party that nominates candidates by convention is entitled to have its nominee for president placed on the general election ballot if the party had a nominee for statewide office at the last general election receive a number of votes equal to at least 5% of the total number of voters received by all candidates for that office.

A political party that nominates by convention may also qualify to place a presidential candidate on the general election ballot if the party files with the secretary of state no later than the 75th day after precinct conventions a list convention participants indicating that the number of participants equals at least 1% of the total number of votes received by all candidates for governor in the most recent gubernatorial general election. If the number of convention participants is fewer than the number required, the party may qualify for ballot access at the general election by filing a petition with secretary of state containing a number of signatures that when added to the number of convention participants on the list equals at least 1% of the total number of voters received by all candidates for governor in the most recent gubernatorial election.

Petition

An independent presidential candidate may obtain ballot access for the general election by filing with the secretary of state no later than the 2nd Monday in May an application and a petition containing the number of signatures equal to at least 1% of the total vote received in the state by all candidates for president in the most recent presidential election. The application must include the names of the presidential electors.

Write-In

A write-in candidate for president must file a declaration of write-in candidacy and the names of the presidential electors with the secretary of state no later than the 78th day before the election. (Tex. Elections Code Ann. §§ 146.023, 146.025, 172.002, 181.005, 181.006, 192.003, 192.032, 192.033)

95% of the state population libe in blue areas. 5% live in the east or west and south of Colorado.

Trump isn't worth anyone's time or effort.

The primary ballots are not set yet. The Primary is March 5th, though, so it is coming up.

Colorado is very blue. Most Republicans left for Idaho or Texas a long time ago.

Thank Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold

Big shoutout to Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold for making this happen.

Colorado is solid blue, it's still electing Biden.

Red Dawn took place in Colorado. WOLVERINES!

Trump has gotten as far as Robert E. Lee, both were indicted on similar charges. Lee was granted Amnesty by President Johnson.

They might try, but this case took three years to get to this point.

Will do

In Colorado? Unlikely, we are a solid blue state.

If convicted, Trump is likely to serve out his federal sentence in Colorado at the Super Max prison at ADX Florence.
