CHICAGO - A Cook County judge is ordering the Illinois State Board of Elections to remove President Donald Trump from the state's primary ballot.
Judge Tracie Porter gave the order Wednesday, urging the board to remove Trump or "cause any votes cast for him to be suppressed," for violating section three of the 14th Amendment, according to court documents.
The order, however, is put on hold until Friday, March 1, in case of an appeal from Trump's attorneys to the Illinois Appellate Court, First District or the Illinois Supreme Court.
Judge Porter's ruling reverses last month's decision by the Illinois Board of Elections to keep Trump's name on the primary ballot after a group of Illinois voters accused the former president of engaging in insurrection.

AGAIN .. the order was put on hold until the SCOTUS rules!
Has no effect!
They just want campaign contributions and votes.
Okay, thanks for clarifying that for me!
Very odd shoulders. Kinda pyramid from the shoulders up.
And if the SCOTUS does not rule for three weeks?
Illinois Gop strips delegates from primary and holds a caucus. Communist b—h cant do anything then
Republicans can organize a caucus. I dont think downstate corn farmers will pay attention to a communist Chicago Traffic Judge.
At some point a bridge will be crossed. A shooting civil war will commence and allbtbese election officials and judges will be captured, and…. Gitmo awaits
After JFK was elected, Chicago Mayor Richard J. Daley admitted that he counted votes from dead people. And that put Kennedy in office.
I lived in a Chicago suburb then, and my dad, who had 12 stores in Chicago, donated to the union “pension fund” so his trucks would get through when drivers went on strike. He also went down to City Hall and got me a drivers license when I was 15 and too young to drive. No drivers’ test, no problem.
I always think of that Daley as an honest crook. Chicagoans would be lucky to have someone that effective running that wonderful city now.
how can a COUNTY judge ORDER a STATE ELECTION BOARD to do anything?
Trump will be on the ballot. This judge is just trying to get her 15 minutes of fame and a bigger slice of the pie. She is ready for her close-up, Mr. Cameraman!
True, but I was much more concerned about the effect on downstream candidates in the general election if Trump is not on the ballot.
November election is for electors. They run unpledged. If the officials at the meeting try to reject votes for Trump, hopefully when congress meets to count electors GOP controls both houses the vote will be awarded to Trump
Judge needs to be removed from the bench.
When will the U.S. Supreme Court make a ruling on this election travesty?
BLACK DEMOCRAT STUPID WOMAN!! She’s a TRAFFIC COURT JUDGE!!!
Imagine, Biden kicked off of every Red State’s ballot. If the SCOTUS does not act constitutionally, this will become reality.
“ cause any votes cast for him to be suppressed”
Libtards do that regardless because they cheat
Libtards play “catch me if you can”. They have no regard for the constitution and are looking for leftist virtue points by doing stuff like this. The tragedy of it all is that 90%+ of their base bob their heads like lemmings thinking its all legit.
The people must NOT be allowed to vote for their choice!!!
