Cook County Circuit Judge Tracie Porter ruled in favor of Illinois voters who argued Trump should be disqualified from the state’s mid-March primary ballot, as well as the November 5th general election ballot.
Voters brought their case over Trump’s behavior on January 6, 2021, when he allegedly violated the anti-insurrection clause of the 14th Amendment.
Porter delayed her ruling from taking effect in light of an unexpected appeal brought by the former president’s legal team.
