Maine’s secretary of state disqualifies Trump from ballot ( www.today.com )

Maine’s Secretary of State Shenna Bellows ruled that Donald Trump was in violation of the 14th Amendment because of his actions of Jan. 6 and therefore ineligible to run for president. His name will appear on the ballot while the court process plays out and appeals are made. NBC’s Ryan Nobles reports for TODAY.

This is interesting because Maine splits its Electoral College votes. In 2016 and 2020, Trump got 1 EC vote in Maine. Is it a huge difference? No, but I’m happy that precedents like this are being set.
