Trump Ballot Ban at the Supreme Court Today

The ACLJ has just filed its final brief at the U.S. Supreme Court in its case to defend your right to vote for the candidate of your choice. Will President Trump remain on the 2024 ballot? Or will the far Left’s outrageous twisting of the 14th Amendment result in the former President being banned from the ballot?

Oral argument will take place on Thursday. We then can expect a ruling from the Justices very soon. (Read here for a brief recap of how the ACLJ’s defense of the Colorado GOP reached the Supreme Court.)

I am not exaggerating when I say this is the biggest case in the ACLJ’s history. My dad, ACLJ Chief Counsel Jay Sekulow, announced that 84 briefs relating to this case have been filed at the U.S. Supreme Court. It’s the most briefs we think we’ve ever seen in a case involving the ACLJ at the high Court.

The crux of this case comes down to whether state Secretaries of State have the authority to unilaterally decide if a candidate is not allowed to be on a ballot (like when the Maine Secretary of State removed Trump from the ballot). It would be catastrophic.

ACLJ Senior Counsel Andy Ekonomou explained further:

You cannot allow 50 jurisdictions and the District of Columbia, Secretaries of State, or administrative officials in the elections department to make a decision about who’s going to be on the ballot or not. You would have absolute national chaos. . . . There’s a person in Maine who’s the Secretary of State. She says that President Trump shouldn’t be on the ballot. She was an elector for Biden. That’s a political move. Brad Raffensperger, the Secretary of State in Georgia, says . . . the Constitution doesn’t give [him] the right to ban anybody from the ballot. Other states would take different positions. So you could have a plethora of different positions all over the U.S. . . . Who would be the legitimate President at that point?

If the far Left pulls off the biggest election interference in U.S. history, it will happen again to other candidates who run for office. Our constitutional republic is at stake – the Justices’ decision could have a generational impact on future elections.

We also have troubling news that the Biden Administration might slow down delivering weapons to Israel for its fight against Hamas terrorists, forcing Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to curtail Israel’s incursion into Gaza.

Don’t forget that just last week, the news leaked that Secretary of State Antony Blinken wants the Biden Administration to consider taking action to recognize “Palestine” as a state. Such an outrageous action is unthinkable – essentially rewarding Hamas for its effort to wipe Israel off the face of the map. Watch our video on “The Myth of Palestine” to learn more about why recognizing “Palestine” as a state must never be used to prevent Israel from protecting its citizens.

The ACLJ remains vigilant in garnering support for America’s greatest ally. Our European affiliate (ECLJ) recently traveled to Spain to meet with leaders for help in saving the remaining Israeli hostages. We also sent a brief to 50 nations defending Israel against unfounded accusations of genocide.
