    The minimum criteria mentioned in the constitution do not strip the power of the state to run their own elections.

    Agreed. The Constitution states minimum requirements to be President. It definitely takes more than that to become President. The ruling out of Colorado doesn’t even forbid him from being President. Obviously he could still win enough states without Colorado and this ruling doesn’t forbid electoral delegates from voting for him either. If a candidate misses a deadline even it could keep them off the ballot. Being listed on one is not a right.
