Did Trump vote as a convicted felon?

"*Yes*. Trump resides in Florida, where it is usually difficult to vote as a
convicted felon. However, for those convicted in other states, it defers to the
laws of the state in which the individual was prosecuted.

"CNN reports Trump was allowed to vote in Palm Beach under a 2021 New York law
granting people convicted of felons the right to vote as long as they aren't
incarcerated at the time of the election."

> Donald Trump's sentencing is set for July 11, 2024, just days before the
> Republican National Convention kicks off. So, we're in this strange limbo wher
> he's guilty of felony crimes but not quite a convicted felon - at least not
> until he gets his official sentence. During sentencing, the judge will decide
> his fate, which could range from a slap on the wrist to time behind bars.
> Trump's crimes fall under the Class E felony category in New York, which is th
> lowest level of felony in the state. He could face a fine, probation, or up to
> four years in prison.

> I have posted this to you 3 or 4 times.

> Is there something there you don't understand??

> Lets not get to deep into the weeds because if you don't understand this...

> Please explain yourself.

> I didn't want to add a second item so as I might confuse you.

> This is why it takes the final judges sentencing to seal the deal.
