Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) and a group of Colorado Republicans threatened Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold (D) with a recall effort after the Supreme Court shut down her attempt to bar former President Trump from the primary ballot.
A letter from Boebert and the other Republicans says Griswold failed when the high court ruled against the state, creating a stain on our Republic and an outright embarrassment to Coloradans and Americans.
Instead of fulfilling her oath of office to encourage Coloradans to make their voices heard, she abused her office for selfish political decision to rig the primary election against President Donald J. Trump, Boebert wrote.
The Supreme Court ruled Monday that Colorado cant remove Trump from the ballot under the 14th Amendments insurrection clause, saying states dont have the authority to do so. The state argued Trump should be disqualified because of his involvement in the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riots.
