A second U.S. state banned Trump from running for office.

The move has sparked controversy across America.
On Thursday, the state of Maine ruled that Donald Trump cannot run for the state's presidency next year. Marine Corps Secretary of State Shanna Bellows suspended Trump over his actions leading to a riot at the U.S. Capitol in 2021. Maine joins Colorado, which also cited the cause of the uprising, as the second state to disqualify the former US president. Both decisions have been delayed while the trial is ongoing. While Colorado consistently votes Democratic, the split between Democrats and Republicans in Maine is closer, meaning it will be a notable loss for Trump.
