Former United States President Donald Trump issued a statement following his petition to the US Supreme Court to overturn Colorado's decision to keep him off the Republican primary ballot in the state. Trump's spokesperson Steven Cheung said the Colorado Supreme Court, which ruled to exclude him from the primary, is a "radical, left-wing activist group" that is "doing all they can to disenfranchise all American voters."
"Democrats are obsessively violating the American voters' Constitutional right to vote for the candidate of their choice. This is an unAmerican, unconstitutional act of election interference which cannot stand. We urge a clear, summary rejection of the Colorado Supreme Court's wrongful ruling and the execution of a free and fair election this November," Cheung said.
