A Cook County judge Wednesday ordered the state election board to remove former President Donald Trump from Illinois’ March 19 primary ballot but put her order on hold until Friday in anticipation of a likely appeal.
Judge Tracie Porter’s decision comes amid national debate over whether Trump is disqualified from the presidency because of his actions related to the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol and whether that attack amounted to an insurrection.

By what authority did she hold allowed her to do this?
The city where obama got groomed
Isn’t it neat that these little foolish ankle biters think they have the authority to bend history to their wills.
We need a conservative DA to sue the Biden crime family for about a Billion. If these are the new rules, and that’s how they want to play, let’s get started.
Judge Traci Porter is a Cook County traffic court judge. Really.
She is a traffic court judge, and Democrat activist.
Jonathan Turley (paraphrased) tonight:
“...with this ruling this judge is furiously paddling to get aboard the Titanic before it sinks.”
I’m so stealing that hilarious analogy.
I totally agree. What are they waiting for...the entire country to go up in flames?
Yup. If you guessed she was related to fani willis by ethnicity you would be right.
Looks like they have disabled your link.
Every time a blue state pulls this crap, a red state should remove Biden’s name from the ballot due to his feeble mental status according to the Hur report. Two can play this game.
VDH says it is going to get a LOT worse. Graduates of Law Schools are not versed in law, but social equity, DEI, CRT, etc. He is appalled at the quality of education he observes first-hand at Stanford.
SO the short answer is “None.”
Roberts has to get his finger out of his arse and get this done.
Good question: SCOTUS raised the fact that Trump had never been convicted of leading an insurrection. Plus the Democrats have repeatedly protested electoral college results over the years.
What also needs to be mentioned is that the amendment does not apply to ex Presidents.
Every black woman judge and prosecutor in the country seems to have decided to use Trump to ride the political gravy train to a higher office. This one, some low level judge in Chicago to boot him off the Illinois primary ballot using the same J6 reasoning the Colorado Court used and that the Supreme Court has already threw out.
Since when does a county judge have the power to kick a presidential candidate off the ballot? This proves the SCOTUS point that anarchy would break out in the states. There’s nothing stopping red states from barring Biden.
