Supreme Court judges lean towards allowing Donald Trump to run for office. The justices must rule on whether to uphold or overturn Colorado's decision to exclude him from the ballot for having participated in an insurrection.

Of the nine justices, six are conservative - three of them appointed by Trump himself - and three are progressive. The judges will hand down a sentence in the coming weeks. Without being able to draw definitive conclusions ahead of time, their interventions suggest that they are mostly inclined to let Trump run foroffice.
