BREAKING: Trump Stays on State Ballot, Rules Washington Judge

Boom!

Another win!

So, a Washington judge decided on a Thursday that Trump stays on the state’s primary ballot. Classy move.

Too bad for the group of voters who claim the Capitol field trip on Jan. 6 should kick him out of the political party. They’re living in delusion land. And just when they think they’ve got a win, the plot twists to our advantage.

And the plot twists keep coming. And it’s still only January.

Washington Examiner reports:

A Washington state judge ruled that former President Donald Trump will stay on the state’s primary ballot. The news comes amid a multistate effort to remove him over his attempts to overturn the 2020 election.

Thurston County Superior Court Judge Mary Sue Wilson rejected the request from eight voters that Trump not be allowed on the ballot because he was ineligible for office due to his role in the Jan. 6 riot.

Wilson said Secretary of State Steve Hobbs, a Democrat, “acted consistent with his duties” when making the candidate lists based on the parties’ submissions, and state law requires any challenge to the candidate list to occur within two days of the list’s publication.

“The court determines that the secretary of state acted consistent with his duties,” Wilson said in the ruling. “An order directing the secretary of state to take different action, an order from this court, is simply not supported by the statutes and not supported by the affidavit of the electors.”
