New Lawsuit Seeks To Bar Trump From Minnesota Ballot

Talking Points Memo reports:

Groups pushing to disqualify Donald Trump from 2024 ballots struck again Tuesday, filing a lawsuit in Minnesota Supreme Court to bar him from the state’s presidential primary ballot. Free Speech for People filed the complaint on behalf of a handful of Minnesota voters, naming Minnesota secretary of state Steve Simon (D) as the respondent.

The lawsuit reads similarly to the one a different good government group filed last week in Colorado.

The two organizations — Free Speech for People and Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) — are leading the charge in disqualifying Trump under the 14th Amendment due to his involvement in the Jan. 6 insurrection, and plan to file similar lawsuits across the country by the end of this year.
