Donald Trump barred from Maine’s primary ballot

Maine's secretary of state Shenna Bellows disqualifies Trump from Republican primary ballot due to his alleged involvement in the Capitol assault; decision faces legal challenges. Bellows invokes 14th Amendment's insurrection clause, citing Trump's incitement of supporters to storm the Capitol. Maine's move challenges Trump's eligibility for office and sets a precedent for other states. Rulings based on the 14th Amendment bring election integrity and candidate eligibility to the forefront. Trump campaign opposes ruling, accusing Democrats of an "attempted theft of an election."
