Whether or not President Donald Trump is on the 2024 ballot will be determined by the specific election laws governing the state where the election is held, and the U.S. Supreme Court is not directly involved in such decision-making. For example, election laws may limit who can be on the ballot by requiring certain filing deadlines or qualifications. State legislatures and courts will be most responsible for responding to any legal disputes. The U.S. Supreme Court’s role will be to decide any constitutional questions that arise from such cases. The Court has historically been very protective of the right to have one’s name appear on the ballot and will likely remain so if any challenge to how election laws affect President Trump is brought up.
