Former President Trump is currently appealing a ruling by a judge in Illinois that prohibits him from appearing on the state's primary ballot. The judge's decision was based on the former president's involvement in the January 6th, 2021 Capitol riot. The judge supported a group of Illinois voters who argued that Trump should be disqualified from the primary ballot in March and the general election ballot in November.
This case is just one of many lawsuits that have been filed across the country in an attempt to remove Trump from various ballots. The Supreme Court is currently reviewing a similar case in Colorado.
