Former President Trump has faced a setback in his bid for a Republican primary ballot as he was removed from the list of candidates in Maine. However, California has delivered a different verdict, allowing Trump’s name to remain on the certified list sent to county election officials. The decision was made by California Secretary of State Shirley Weber, a Democrat, despite calls from officials such as Lt. Gov. Eleni Kounalakis to disqualify Trump based on the claim that he is an insurrectionist. Weber cited the complexity of the issue and left the final decision to the court. California Governor Gavin Newsom, also a Democrat, expressed his disagreement with disqualifying Trump, emphasizing that candidates are defeated through the electoral process. The news comes as California holds significant influence in the Republican nomination process due to its large number of GOP delegates. The Supreme Court’s ruling on the 14th Amendment challenges to Trump’s candidacy is expected before California’s GOP primary on March 5, which carries significant implications for the former president’s campaign.
