Colorado republicans have signaled they may hold caucus instead of primary election on March 5th if Trump remains off the ballot. This comes in the wake of a near split 4/3 decision by the Colorado supreme court that barred Trump from appearing on ballots in March. The controversial ruling, which dissenting justices in Colorado stated undermined the 'bedrock' of America, is on hold until early January or supreme court overturn. The near split ruling from some of our nation's most experienced judges is somewhat remarkable given all 7 were appointed by Democrat governors.
Supreme court overturn of this decision seems likely in a court where 3 justices were appointed by Trump, and 6 were appointed by other Republican presidents. But in the meantime, a caucus event would effectively table this decision until the SCOTUS can review the case leading up to the November election.
In the meantime the Iowa caucus is fast approaching, and if activists in other states attempt similar ballot blocking measures, the number of caucuses nationwide may grow considerably.
