Lindsey Pipia is an Associate Producer for the 2024 Political Desk.

Former President Donald Trump is suing Michigan's top election official over efforts to keep him off the state’s ballot in 2024. According to a complaint filed Tuesday, Trump is asking a state court to block Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson from leaving his name off a list of candidates that would appear on 2024 presidential ballots and to declare she does not have that authority in the first place. A spokesperson for Benson declined to comment.

'This uncertainty is compounded by the fact that Secretary Benson is an active member of the opposing major political party and has publicly weighed in with her negative views of President Trump.' The lawsuit comes after lawsuits were filed in Michigan seeking to keep the former president off the primary and general election ballots in the state, citing Section 3 of the 14th Amendment.
