Maine's top political race official has dropped former President Donald Trump from the state's 2024 mandatory voting form in a surprising choice in light of the Fourteenth Amendment's "rebellious boycott."

Maine Secretary of State Shana Howells has shut down the upcoming potential lure of her choice in state court, which Trump's group said it plans to file.

The choice makes Maine the second state to remove Trump from office after the Colorado High Court recently issued its own shocking decision to remove him from voting forms. The improvement is a huge victory for Trump's faultfinders, who cited the January 6, 2021 attack on the US Capitol as trying to implement an established system that was intended to protect the country from the hostility of the majority regime rebels. .

Kreis, a leftist, made the choice Thursday in the wake of recently conducting a regulatory hearing on Trump's qualifications for office. A bipartisan gathering of previous state legislators has documented tests against Trump.

"I don't come to this resolution lightly," Kries composed. "Majority rule government is sacrosanct… I am cautious that no Secretary of State has ever denied access to an official up-and-coming voter form in terms of segment three of the Fourteenth Amendment. I am extra cautious, in any case, before any official competitor revolts." Never participated."

Ratified after the nationwide conflict, the Fourteenth Amendment states that American officials who "participate in insurrection" cannot hold future office. In any case, the measure is questionable and does not say how the boycott should be implemented.

Most legal experts agree that the US High Court will settle the matter for the entire country.

In any case, the power that Trump's faultfinders asserted after the Colorado administration expanded the Maine choice. Before Colorado, a few different states, such as Michigan and Minnesota, had dismissed comparable efforts.

In an announcement Thursday, Trump's crusade representative Steven Cheung accused Howells of being a "harmful liberal" who has now "chosen to meddle in government political competition."

"Blue state leftists are suspending the social liberties of American voters by wildly and unnaturally attempting to immediately remove President Trump's name from voting forms," Cheung said.

In his choice, Howells argued that he had a valid commitment to stick to the Fourteenth Amendment's sedition restrictions and exclude Trump from the required voting forms.

"It begins most importantly with the promise I made to uphold the Constitution, and my obligation under Maine's political race regulations ... to ensure that up-and-comers who appear on the required polling forms are equipped for the jobs they are seeking," she said. .

To illustrate his point, Kreis wrote that the challengers presented incontrovertible evidence that the Jan. 6 uprising "was ordered by Trump — and that the U.S. Constitution "does not tolerate attacks on the foundations of our administration."

"The record shows that Mr. Trump, over a period of time and coming full circle on January 6, 2021, has used a misleading story of political extortion to galvanize his allies and instruct the State House to avoid confirmation of the 2020 political race. And a quiet exchange of power. ,” by Crys. "I similarly assume that Mr. Trump knew about the potential for brutality and supported its use in the first place because he both empowered it with incendiary speech and took no proactive steps to stop it.
