edit: I have changed my title to match the new NYTimes headline. Sorry about the all caps, I guess they are really excited about this lol
Also shoutout to @[email protected] who shared a gift article link in the comments. I hope you don’t mind but I kinda stole it and updated the post
Apparently, assuming he’s voting in Florida, for an out of state felony they use the other state’s rules to determine if he can vote. For New York, you can vote unless you are in prison for a felony (people on parole can vote). So unfortunately unless he’s thrown in jail, he’ll probably be able to vote for himself in Florida.

But hey maybe he goes to jail for something finally. That’d be nice.
Fuck prisoner disenfranchisement. Adult citizens should be able to vote, full stop. Even a treasonous scumbag fascist racist felon like trump.
Rich people, and politicians, don’t go to jail in America.
Well they certainly have a leg up and don’t go to jail as often as they should, politicians do go to jail sometimes. Easy to find federal politicians that have on this list:

But yeah I’ll be surprised if Trump ever actually ends up behind bars.
What a beautiful list, thank you. Oh look who made the list!
