According to Reuters, the state Supreme Court postponed its decision until it rules on the issue.A group of Maine lawmakers had previously argued that Trump should be disqualified under a provision of the U.S. Constitution that bars from holding public office people who have in the past pledged allegiance to the country and engaged in "sedition or insurrection."
