Maine has become the second US state to disqualify former US President Donald Trump from a 2024 presidential primary election ballot over his role in the attack on the Capitol in January 2021.
On Thursday, the state’s Democrat Secretary of State Shenna Bellows said that Mr Trump contributed to the riots when he spread false claims about voter fraud in the 2020 election and then urged his supporters to march on the US Capitol to stop lawmakers from certifying the vote.
