The lawsuit, filed Monday, asks the court to confirm that Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson, a Democrat, does not have the power to determine whether Trump can be disqualified from the election under the 14th Amendment.
Trump's case comes after the liberal group Free Speech for People filed a lawsuit in September to keep the former president off Michigan's 2024 ballot, The Hill reported Wednesday.
The liberal group also filed a similar lawsuit in Minnesota, arguing that the so-called "insurrection" clause under the 14th Amendment bars Trump from the ballot due to his alleged involvement in the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot.
