‘It’s Very Much a Function of State Law’: Barbara McQuade on Michigan’s Rejection of 14th Amendment Case Against Trump

‘Every state has a slightly different procedural posture when it comes to administering elections’
By Grabien Staff

RUSH EXCERPT:

MCQUADE: "It’s very much a function of state law, Julian. Every state has a slightly different procedural posture when it comes to administering elections. And so although the Constitution controls the substance and the qualifications, it is the states that decide how they go about it. So in Michigan, there is no requirement that the secretary of state determine that a person is qualified to serve as president before they may appear on the ballot. That’s different in Colorado and it's different in Maine."
