Claudia Conway, the daughter of former Donald Trump adviser Kellyanne Conway, celebrated on Saturday the two states that removed the former president from the 2024 ballot.

Trump, the frontrunner for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination, faces legal challenges that seek to remove him from the ballot in several states, with two having already barred his name from primary voters' consideration.

On Thursday, Maine became the second state to remove the former president from its 2024 ballot, preventing him from participating in its primary in March.

Earlier this month, the Colorado Supreme Court ruled that Trump should be barred from the state's ballot because of his alleged role in the riot at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021.

Meanwhile, the Colorado Republican Party has also filed an appeal against the state's decision, which will bring the case to the U.S. Supreme Court.
