NEW YORK — Donald Trump’s name should be excluded from New York’s ballot in next year’s presidential primary and general election for his alleged incitement of the 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol, a group of state senators urged election officials on Thursday. In a letter to the state Board of Elections shared exclusively with the New York Daily News, New York Sens.
Brad Hoylman-Sigal, Liz Krueger, and others cited Trump’s efforts to overthrow democracy in violation of the Constitution’s "Insurrectionist Disqualification Clause" in outlining why he shouldn’t be featured on the ballot.
