Full List of States Wanting to Kick Biden Off the Ballot
==========
Several Republican officials have voiced support for removing President Joe Biden from their state's ballot in the 2024 race after Colorado and Maine moved to challenge Trump's candidacy in the GOP primary. The 14th Amendment states that anyone who takes an oath to defend the Constitution and then engages in 'insurrection or rebellion' is not permitted to hold 'any office, civil or military, under the United States.' Texas Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick has floated removing Biden from the state's ballot, citing his handling of the influx of migrants at the U.S.-Mexico border. Missouri Secretary of State Jay Ashcroft has suggested he may move to have Biden removed from the state's ballot if the Supreme Court allows the Colorado and Maine decisions to stand. Ron DeSantis, who is challenging Trump in the Republican presidential primary, has also said his state may consider removing Biden from the ballot. A coalition of conservative lawmakers from Arizona, Georgia, and Pennsylvania have signaled they plan to try to remove Biden from their state's ballot. Some Republican officials, including South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem and Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall, have rejected efforts to have Biden removed from the state ballot.
