40% : Bellows, a Democrat, halted the effect of her ruling to allow Trump to seek the state superior court's review.
24% : Trump also said he was denied due process because he was not given adequate time and opportunity to put forth a defense, and said Bellows lacked statutory authority to hear the challenges to his candidacy under Section 3 of the 14th Amendment.
18% : In his 11-page complaint, filed in Maine Superior Court in Kennebec County, Trump argued that Bellows was "biased" and should have recused herself from considering the challenges to the former president's eligibility for office brought by two groups of voters.
