Maine, in the northeast of the United States, this Thursday became the second state to expel former President Donald Trump (2017-2021) from the internal elections of the Republican party to choose the candidate for the 2024 presidential elections.
In a document shared by several American media outlets, Maine Secretary of State Shenna Bellows announced the decision, alleging that Trump cannot participate in the White House elections for having participated in an "insurrection." in the assault on the Capitol on January 6, 2021, as the Colorado Supreme Court already did on December 20.
Bellows' decision comes a week after the Colorado State Supreme Court, in a historic move, ruled in favor of expelling the Republican from his party's primary.
