The jury probably just guaranteed his election as the next President.WTF? Guilty on 34 counts, each of which is a felony punishable by up to four years. I didn't expect that. It goes to show he couldn't get a fair trial in Manhattan. Sentencing is on July 11. The Republican convention starts on July 15.

In 23 states, felons lose their voting rights only while incarcerated, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures. In some other states including Florida, felons have to meet requirements to regain voting rights, such as paying off fines, fees and restitution.
Some lawyers we interviewed pointed to uncertainties or confusion about whether Trump could lose his voting rights. Some Floridians with felony records have been tripped up by the rules. The Florida Rights Restoration Coalition dropped a case against the state after the state agreed to develop rules to update the process for felons seeking advisory opinions about whether they can vote.
Why it’s unlikely that Trump will lose his voting rights if convicted of a felony in New YorkWhat does it matter? That felonious mofo probably has never voted.
