2Nd Update, 5:49 Pm: President Donald Trump won’t have to disclose his tax returns in order to be listed on the ballot for the California primary after all. The Golden State’s Supreme Court ruled unanimously today to strike down the law enacted in July, saying it violates the California Constitution that guarantees “an inclusive open presidential primary ballot.” Read details of the case and its journey through the courts below.
Updated, Sept. 20: A federal judge blocked the state of California law that would leave President Donald Trump off the primary ballot if he did not release the past five years of his tax returns.
The law would have applied to all presidential and gubernatorial candidates, but the judge said in a hearing that the “elephant in the room” was Trump’s tax returns, which he has refused to release. The judge will issue a final decision later.
