Is this the start of a snowball effect? The American state of Maine, in the northeast of the United States, announced on Thursday, December 28, that Donald Trump would not appear on the ballots in the Republican primary for the 2024 presidential election, a week after a decision similar in Colorado, in connection with the assault on the Capitol by his supporters in 2021.
“He is not fit for the office of president” under the 14th Amendment to the Constitution, which excludes from public liability persons who have engaged in acts of« insurrection »declared in an official document Shenna Bellows, the Democratic secretary of the State of Maine, responsible for organizing the elections.
The Republican primaries in Maine are scheduled for Tuesday, March 5, 2024, called “Super Tuesday” due to the large number of polls held by Democrats and Republicans on that day.
