A bid to remove former President Donald Trump from the primary election ballot in Massachusetts has failed at the state’s ballot law commission, which said they lack jurisdiction to address the matter.

The decision was handed down Monday after the bipartisan State Ballot Law Commission held a hearing last week to discuss whether they have the power to take a candidate off the ballot. The commission consists of three governor-appointed members: a Republican chairman and two other Democrat appointees.
