Zaslav defends CNN’s Trump town hall: ‘All voices should be heard’ “Secretaries of state - who in most cases are in charge of deciding who gets on the ballot – must refuse to place Donald Trump’s name on the 2024 ballot, based on the clear meaning of section three of the 14th amendment to the US constitution,” he concluded. He said that it is up to the secretaries of state to determine whether Trump should be on the ballot. He said that while the recently passed Electoral Count Reform Act, which is an update to the Electoral Count Act of 1887, covers some legal concerns, Trump may still find a way to influence the results of the election. He said that the chances of him trying to overturn the election are “greater now” than before because Trump has more supporters in local and state governments. Reich argued that the former president tried to change the results of the election in 2020, and questioned what would stop Trump form attempting the same moves in 2024. “But Trump is running for reelection, despite the explicit language of section three of the 14th amendment to the constitution, which prohibits anyone who has held public office and who has engaged in insurrection against the United States from ever again serving in public office,” Reich continued.

Maintaining a relationship with Coreen might be time- consuming, but it sure as hell wasn’t boring. It had taken two hours of arguing on the phone to get her to agree to a meeting. Thirteen minutes to get from Eglinton West to Wilson Station, six blocks worth of bus ride, and then a three block run to Coreen’s. He shifted his scowl to the LED clock hanging from the ceiling. All things considered, neutral ground might have been a better idea. His hands were freezing, he was in a bitch of a bad mood, and he had no idea why he’d agreed to meet Coreen at her apartment.
