    If it makes you feel better, he can’t vote for himself.

      He is a Floridian though, doesn’t it take a “simple” meeting with DeSantis’s hand picked committee to get his voting rights back?

        Nope. I’m not sure which law states that a convicted felon can’t vote, but I know for sure it takes quite a few years to change such foundational laws and this will not happen quickly enough.

        It can happen for the election after Biden v Trump tho.

          Florida just changed their laws on that. As others have said though that Florida laws require it to be finished so if Trump appeals I think that is right out.

        That’s an interesting question since it isn’t a Florida felony that he was convicted of. However, the Florida law about felony voting already has several caveats. It only takes effect after the felony stuff is “done” as in time-served, parole done, and relevant fines paid. Then you have the committee approval which for Trump would likely be a high-five.

      Can he look over Melanie’s shoulder while she votes for him like last time?

      Wait, why not?

      Edit: Oh, right. This isn’t the Honorable Judge Cannon. These are state felonies presided by a judge who understands the government functions
