Good day, viewers. This is Maya Thompson with Visual News, bringing you the latest developments on the eligibility of former President Donald Trump in the 2024 presidential primary ballots.
In a decision that sets California apart from Colorado and Maine, California Secretary of State Shirley Weber, a Democrat, has officially certified the list of candidates for the March 5, 2024, Presidential Primary Election, keeping Donald Trump on the state's ballot.
This move comes despite calls from California's Lieutenant Governor, Eleni Kounalakis, urging Secretary Weber to remove Trump from the ballot. Lt. Governor Kounalakis, citing the recent decision in Colorado, accused Trump of insurrection during the January 6, 2021, Capitol breach, claiming this disqualifies him from holding office under Section 3 of the 14th Amendment.
