Wyoming Failed effort to boot Trump from ballot exposes 'radical' left's ‘pure lunacy’: state election chief 'It's a huge moment for the American people,' Wyoming Secretary of State Chuck Gray By Emma Colton Fox News Published March 6, 2024 4:43am EST Trump gets historic Supreme Court ruling ahead of Super Tuesday Video Trump gets historic Supreme Court ruling ahead of Super Tuesday Fox News correspondent Aishah Hasnie has the latest on former President Trump's favorable polling ahead of the 2024 presidential election on 'Special Report.'
The Supreme Court’s unanimous ruling to keep former President Donald Trump's name on Colorado primary ballots is a win for democracy and further exposed the radical left’s "pure lunacy," Wyoming Secretary of State Chuck Gray told Fox News Digital. "It's a huge moment for the American people," Gray told Fox News Digital in a phone interview shortly following SCOTUS’ decision. "And I think one of the lessons of this is … the way the radical left despises the American people and our process, and what happens then is lunacy. And that's what their whole argumentation and what they were trying to do was. It was pure lunacy." Each of the nine Supreme Court justices ruled in Trump’s favor in a decision released Monday, ending legal threats in a handful of states that were working to remove the former president’s name over claims he incited an insurrection on Jan. 6, 2021. "We conclude that States may disqualify persons holding or attempting to hold state office. But States have no power under the Constitution to enforce Section 3 with respect to federal offices, especially the Presidency," the opinion states. WYOMING ELECTION CHIEF MOUNTS FULL-COURT PRESS AGAINST 'RADICAL LEFT'S' PUSH TO REMOVE TRUMP FROM BALLOT
Last year, a group of Colorado voters brought a lawsuit arguing Trump should be deemed ineligible from holding political office under a Civil War-era insurrection clause and that his name should thus be barred from appearing on the 2024 ballot. The group said Trump’s actions on Jan. 6, 2021, when supporters breached the U.S. Capitol, violated a clause in the 14th Amendment that prevents officers of the United States, members of Congress or state legislatures who "engaged in insurrection or rebellion" against the Constitution from holding political office. WYOMING JUDGE DISMISSES EFFORT TO BAR TRUMP FROM BALLOT The Colorado Supreme Court ultimately ruled to bar Trump from the ballot, with justices writing in their opinion that Trump "incited and encouraged" the use of violence to prevent the peaceful transfer of power on Jan. 6, 2021, following the 2020 presidential election. Trump subsequently appealed the case to the U.S. Supreme Court, and ultimately notched a victory on Monday.
