On Wednesday, California Lt. Gov. Eleni Kounalakis wrote a letter calling on the California Secretary of State to explore following Colorado's lead to disqualify Trump from the primary ballot.

"Based on the Colorado Supreme Court's ruling in Anderson v. Griswold... I urge you to explore every legal option to remove former President Donald Trump from California's 2024 presidential primary ballot," Kounalakis wrote in the letter addressed to California Secretary of State Shirley Weber.

The Colorado Supreme Court on Tuesday evening ruled in a 4-3 decision that Trump is ineligible to run for president in 2024 and that his name should therefore not appear on state ballots in the primaries, LifeSiteNews reported.

The move has elicited strong pushback from Republicans, who argue the ruling is a partisan effort at election interference and gives the lie to Democrats' rhetoric about protecting "democracy."  The decision has been stayed until early next month, and Trump's campaign has vowed to appeal it to the US Supreme Court.

In the meantime, the major decision has created a judicial precedent for other states that would rather not see Trump have a shot at regaining the White House amid current US President Joe Biden's struggling poll numbers.

In the Wednesday letter, Lt. Gov. Kounalakis heavily referenced Colorado's ruling, which relied on the Fourteenth Amendment of the US Constitution that bars any candidate from office who engaged in an "insurrection" after swearing an oath to uphold the Constitution.

Legal experts have blasted the Colorado Court's decision as anti-democratic, but Kounalakis said the ruling was "about honoring the rule of law in our country in protecting the fundamental pillars of our democracy."

"California must stand on the right side of history," she said, hailing the "sanctity of our constitution and our democracy." Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
