A Cook County judge ruled that the Illinois State Board of Elections must remove former President Donald Trump’s name from the state’s March 19 primary ballot. Judge Tracie Porter – whose Facebook page describes herself as “unanimously appointed” – also appears to want Illinois voters to have an appointed, not elected, president.
Porter issued the order following a challenge by the far-left ‘Free Speech for People’ group, an astroturf organization funded by Soros groups, the Rockefeller Family Fund, the climate change lobby, and the Hamas-linked Tides Foundation.
In her 38-page statement, Porter argued that an election board decision to keep Trump on the ballot was “clearly erroneous” and that the Soros group’s request should have been accepted.
“Every court or official that has addressed the merits of Trump’s constitutional eligibility has found that he engaged in insurrection after taking the oath of office and is therefore disqualified from the presidency,” commented Ron Fein, legal director of Free Speech For People and co-lead counsel.
Trump’s campaign spokesman, Steven Cheung, criticized the judgment, labeling it “an unconstitutional ruling” from “an activist Democrat judge in Illinois” and promised swift appeal measures. Judge Porter then placed her ruling on hold until Friday to allow time for appeal. She said she would rescind her order if the Supreme Court’s final decision contradicted hers.
