In a recent development surrounding the controversial 14th Amendment, Section 3 issue, legal experts are divided over Judge Ludig's stance on disqualifying candidates based on allegations of insurrection. Former Chief of Staff to Vice President Mike Pence, Mark Short, weighed in on the matter, expressing both respect for Judge Ludig's legal opinions but disagreement with his position in this particular case.
Judge Ludig, a respected scholar in the conservative legal movement, has been a staunch advocate for pursuing disqualification under the 14th Amendment, Section 3. His opinions garnered attention during the tumultuous events leading up to January 6th. However, Short clarified that Judge Ludig was not consulted by Vice President Pence until after the incident. While acknowledging Judge Ludig's valuable contributions in the past, Short disagrees with his stance in this particular instance.
