 NY Times: Maine Joins Colorado in Finding Trump Ineligible for Primary Ballot - In a written decision, Maine’s secretary of state said that Donald J. Trump did not qualify for the ballot because of his role in the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol. By Jenna Russell and Ernesto Londoño

“I am mindful that no secretary of state has ever deprived a presidential candidate of ballot access based on Section 3 of the 14th Amendment. I am also mindful, however, that no presidential candidate has ever before engaged in insurrection.,” Ms. Bellows, a Democrat, wrote.
