Marjorie Taylor Greene in court due to 14th Amendment provision

• A group of Georgia voters can proceed with challenging U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s bid for office on 14th Amendment grounds.
• Since Reconstruction, the provision has only been cited once.
• Though the rule could influence midterms now, it might also take center stage in the 2024 general election.

A group of Georgia voters is hoping an arcane Constitutional law could knock U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene off the ballot.

Greene, R-Ga., on Friday testified in an administrative hearing on a challenge to her candidacy for reelection, raised by a group of Georgia voters, who claim that the congresswoman helped facilitate the Jan. 6 Capitol riot. The riot stemmed from efforts to stop the certification of Joe Biden’s presidential election win.
