• COSC ruled that Trump was ineligible to be on the ballot in CO for a Federal election, based upon their determination that Trump led an "insurrection" on Jan 6th. Obviously Trump wasn't offered due process with the ability to cross examine, offer testimony or evidence.

• From what I understand it will go to an Appellate court for appeal and whether it is upheld or denied, would then be appealed to SCOTUS.

• Keep in mind there is also the whole Jack Smith thing going on in DC charging that Trump led an insurrection on Jan 6th.

• Let's say the Appellate court stands with the COSC and their decision stands, eliminating Trump from the ballot. Trump now appeals and requests SCOTUS to get involved, which it should being a Federal election and clearly COSC is way out of their lane.

Does SCOTUS agree to hear the appeal and now will have to decide whether or not Trump incited an insurrection. Or do they kick it out and decline to hear it based on Jack Smith's current litigation.

This could go seven different ways from Sunday.
