Too bad these idiots don’t read the constitution. When I read the 14th amendment, section 5 stood out like a sore thumb. A lot of Time and money would be saved along with aggravation of the stupid state.

Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold said that she was "disappointed" in the ruling.

9-0! IIRC “Jack Smith” once had a famous prosecution he conducted overruled by SCOTUS on a 9-0 vote. If I’m correct I wonder if the same thing will happen with the DC prosecution.

There are 3,141 counties in the US. Probably 10 times that number of judges when you include municipal, district and state supremes.

If some judge in Cornfield County Nebraska doesn’t like some candidate they could exclude them from the ballot on false pretenses.

The election in the US would soon look like a circus..............

And the loss of credibility by the Colorado Judiciary.

And all that time, Griswold pretended she was a disinterested observer, just waiting on the Supreme Court rule on a question she wasn’t clear about. She was an advocate all along.

9-0! I do NOT want to hear one leftwing nut commenting anywhere about the biased Supreme Court, or how there are “Republicans” bending the law.

They know exactly whst the constitution says.

To them it’s nothing more than an impediment to their endgame.

Biden ignoring what the SCOTUS said about student loan debt is a perfect example of their contempt for the constitution.

And don’t think today’s decision won’t stop somebody at the election supervisor level from leaving Trump off the ballot anyway.....it’ll happen somewhere.

Yeah, tyrannists' are always "disappointed" when they are restrained.

What would have been good for the goose would have been good for the gander.

What would happen if half the states removed Trump and half removed Biden?

Could we claim that the presidential election was legitimate? Heck no!

And what happens if war is declared somewhere and illegitimate Biden demands that young men enlist? Will he have the authority? I think not.

But maybe this all part of the plan... to divide and conquer the United States.

Allowing the States to disqualify presidential and federal candidates on a whim would’ve led to a civil war in short order. It would’ve forced the individual States to pursue lawfare in conjunction with other politically aligned states to even have a chance of having their concerns addressed.

A wise, and therefore rare, decision by the Supreme Court.

How will they reprint the ballots in time for the primary tomorrow? Was there early voting there? Are those ballots trashed?

Well, they’ll really be howling when Fat Fani and Worrisome Wade get disqualified on his election case, then.

“I’m still surprised at least one female lib justice didn’t dissent as a virtue signal to the left”

Roberts likely pressured the leftist judges to go along in keeping with how Roberts and his hand-maiden like acolyte often go along with the coven’s wishes on other matters.
