New Hampshire Secretary of State David Scanlan (R) is consulting with the state attorney general to determine if the U.S. Constitution’s Fourteenth Amendment empowers him to keep former President Donald Trump off the 2024 presidential ballot.
As secretary of state, Scanlan oversees New Hampshire’s first-in-the-nation presidential primary that will take place at the beginning of 2024. However, Scanlan has caught wind of scholars’ recent arguments that the Fourteenth Amendment’s Disqualification Clause prohibits Trump from being on the presidential ballot.

That will add stability to the election process. In a BIG way. Lawless fiefdoms are springing up everywhere.

Trump brings all the Rino's and corrupt politicians out of the closet, and puts a name on them.

Why do so many of these people not want a "Great" country for everyone living here legally? Sad.

If you think that the 14th Amendment can be used to bar Trump from running, which is pure BS, do you also believe Biden.
should be prosecuted for treason under the same Amendment for his adding and abetting the enemy, Iran, a declared enemy and international terrorist country? Biden has released 6 billion dollars to Iran which will be used in their ongoing terrorist activities.

#7 The money is being used to return to and support biden and the dem party. Just like all the money that is given to the teacher's union. It all comes back to joey and the dem party. Just another way of using OUR tax dollars and supporting the dem party with it.

#6 We HAVE to stop trucks from bringing in ballots and counting well after the election ends for weeks until the dems win. Too bad the Repubs are just as crooked as the dems. You really have to know they are ALL complicit in the gathering of money for themselves and how dumb are we to let them. Why do the dems get to count the ballots and repubs only get to watch from the sidelines. And why do the repubs have to leave when the dems say so? How abt they stay through the night? Is anyone watching after the dems tell the repubs they are done counting for the day. Is anyone watching the building after they all leave for TRUCK DELIVERIES? How many ballots are DELIVERED to be counted the next day and the next? How many are registered and how many OVER that number have voted. Dems keep counting until they win and then ALL OF A SUDDEN the election is over.
I read an article where 92% of registered voters voted in the last election. Do you believe that? And how many of our REPLACEMENTS (here illegally) will feel free to and are encouraged to vote in 2024? And yet the dems will say the "replacement theory" is untrue. Until WE stop them it will continue. If repubs believed in FAIR elections they would DO something. But they do not want the gravy train to stop either.

The 14th amendment does not provide for disqualification based on opinion, There is not a factual basis at this time to dsq DJT

Totally fraudulent, on it's face. This "R" is clearly an anti-American Uniparty thug. Note the name.

Fraudulent charges aren't doing the trick, so in their desperation, they're looking for another way to keep Trump from running. I fear for his life. I keep thinking about how Indira Gandhi's bodyguards murdered her. Can we trust the Secret Service?

Yeah...and seven States wouldn't allow Abe Lincoln on the ballot either.
It might be time to bring the practice of Tarring/feathering back...perhaps with karosyrup(maple?), pinesap, or something equally sticky rather than that ugly,awful petroleum/fossil fuel Tar.

FTA: "Scanlan said he views the January 6 Capitol riot as a “really unfortunate event in our history” but cautioned that he is not “really qualified to say whether that was an ‘insurrection’ or not. “I think that is for the courts to decide,” Scanlan added.
This fool is the Secretary of State for New Hampshire yet he is not qualified to decide for himself whether an insurrection occurred. He is admitting that he is so weak minded that he is passing that decision on "to the courts." How on earth do such fools get nominated and elected?

Believe the people of NH should have a right to chose. Even though most NH voters are donkeys anyway.

Maybe, since no one, absolutely NO ONE, has been even charged with insurrection for Jan 6th.
Not even the couple of folks who they seem to believe were instrumental in that days events.
Nearly all have simply been arrested for "parading" and "unlawful entry" type crimes.

The NH Secretary of State is out of line, if he is smart he will allow the NH voters to decide how the primary and general elections turn out in that Stste.

Scanlan, hiding behind his fake (R), like so many others who obviously fear the basic tenet of a representative democracy, citizens voting for the candidate of their choice whether one personally likes them or not. "Progressive" Republicans are but democrats, who couldn't kiss a Conservative's behind standing on their daddy's shoulders.

David, Trump has not been convicted of anything. Get a little ahead of yourself, aren't you?
