SACRAMENTO – Lieutenant Governor Eleni Kounalakis sent a letter to California Secretary of State, Dr. Shirley Weber, urging her to explore legal options to remove former President Donald Trump from California’s 2024 presidential primary ballot following the Colorado Supreme Court’s ruling in Anderson v. Griswold (2023 CO 63).

The Colorado Supreme Court held that Trump’s role in inciting the January 6, 2021, insurrection disqualifies him from standing for presidential election under section three of the Fourteenth Amendment.

Its likely that the US Supreme Court will rule on whether Donald Trump will appear on the Colorado Ballot as the Supreme Court has the final say about constitutional matters.

Last week, The California Secretary of State’s Office confirmed Friday that state law prohibits Assemblymember Vince Fong (D-Bakersfield) from running as a candidate for the 20th Congressional District of California because he had previously filed paperwork to run for reelection to the California State Assembly.


Back in April, Eleni Kounalakis Launches Campaign for Governor in 2026. As Lt. Governor, Kounalakis has served as acting governor on several occasions, including becoming the first female to sign a bill into law—  Acting Governor Eleni Kounalakis signed legislation that extends eviction protections for Californians participating in rental assistance programs, making her the first woman in California’s history to sign a piece of legislation into law.

Trump 2024. United States Supreme Court will prevent this nonsense. $2M a day interest taxpayers are paying for Biden’s scam climate change and other wasteful nonsensical spending. Secure the border. Infrastructure Act along with the rest is nothing but a scam.

@MEV Sorry my friend, but it is YOU who is spewing nonsense. A vote for Dictator Trump will put this country in chaos and ruins. As a TRUE Republican, I want to see the REAL Republicans return to their former self. Full Stop.

Trump is a career criminal and wannabe dictator. He belongs in prison.

Trump would never carry California in any event.

This guy lives rent free in every Dem’s mind. Gets free airtime on every major news network. Doesn’t even have to attend a debate to be the talk of the debate. What other candidate fits that criteria? Sleepy Joe? Kamalama-ding-dong? You can’t destroy the monster you created until you stop talking about him (but that’s probably not gonna happen). 2024 gonna be a wild ride.

I see this as a bright side in terms of it clearly rips off the mask of those leftist states and shows their true communist totalitarian nature. In fact, one might argue California and Colorado are the CCPs 35th and 36th province.
