Maine Secretary of State Rules Donald Trump Ineligible to Appear on 2021 Primary Ballot

Maine Secretary of State Shenna Bellows ruled on Thursday that former President Donald Trump is ineligible to appear on the state's primary ballot in 2021 due to his role in the January 6th assault on the U.S. Capitol. The ruling cites Section 3 of the 14th Amendment and will not be enforced until the courts weigh in. This ruling is part of a national effort to disqualify Trump from appearing on ballots in future elections, and it is unclear whether Trump will appeal the decision.
