WASHINGTON, March 4. /TASS/. The US Supreme Court authorized ex-President Donald Trump to participate in primary election in Colorado, cancelling the ban, imposed by the Colorado Supreme Court earlier.
"Because the Constitution makes Congress, rather than the States, responsible for enforcing Section 3 [of the 14th Amendment] against federal officeholders and candidates, we reverse" the court ruling reads.
Previously, the Colorado Supreme Court banned Trump from taking part in the local elections for nomination as the Republican candidate for 2024 presidential election.
