Another US state wants to exclude Trump from the primary election. Similar decisions had previously been made in the states of Colorado and Maine.

The country's Supreme Court is now dealing with the question. Trump wants to run again for the Republicans in the US presidential election at the beginning of November. For now, Trump's name will remain on the ballot in the state. The Republican primary in Illinois is March 19th. The background to the dispute is the unprecedented attack on the US parliament building three years ago: Trump supporters violently stormed the Capitol.
