Supreme Court's Ballot Ruling Wasn't a Home Run for Donald Trump

The Supreme Court handed former President Donald Trump's 2024 campaign a win with its latest ruling, but it wasn't exactly a home run for the Republican frontrunner.

The court ruled in Trump's favor Monday, reversing the Colorado Supreme Court's decision that determined the former president was ineligible for the state's primary ballot because of his role in the January 6, 2021, Capitol Riot. In a unanimous ruling, the nine justices agreed that an individual state shouldn't be able to choose who gets to run for the White House.

However, the court not only split over how the disqualification clause should be enforced but also opted out of weighing in on whether or not Trump engaged in insurrection, despite having the chance to do so.
