Ballot Access - On August 31, U.S. District Court Judge Robin Rosenberg, an Obama appointee, issued a six-page order in Caplan v Trump, Florida s.d. 0:23cv-61628. The case had been filed by three voters alleging that Former President Donald Trump should be barred from the Florida 2024 Republican presidential primary, on “insurrection” grounds. The judge ruled that the voters don’t have standing. In support of her conclusion, she cited several cases from the 2008 election, when various voters filed somewhat similar lawsuits to keep former President Barack Obama off the ballot on the grounds that he was not a natural-born citizen.
