In a recent turn of events, former President Donald Trump is expected to file appeals regarding his removal from the ballot in both Colorado and Maine. The decisions to remove him were made by the Supreme Court of Colorado and the Secretary of State in Maine. The Secretary of State in question participated in an interview defending her decision and addressing concerns about her recusal.
During the interview, the Secretary of State received credit for her transparency and was commended for answering questions. It was also highlighted that she has been subjected to threats, which were strongly condemned. The discussion then moved to the issue of due process, with the Secretary of State arguing that it does not have to reach the level of a criminal trial. However, concerns were raised about the minimum levels of due process and the scrutiny these decisions would face.
