(The Guardian) One of the biggest questions hanging over the 2024 election is: will any of Donald Trump’s four criminal trials be resolved before the vote?
The prospect of the former president being found guilty by a jury is a major source of peril for his chances of returning to the White House – but an exoneration would bolster his claims that he’s being unfairly targeted by prosecutors.
But so far, it seems likely that the two federal and two-state level cases remain bogged down in pre-trial motions and appeals – such as the argument in Georgia over whether prosecutor Fani Willis can remain on the case – before the 7 November election day, raising the prospect that none are decided before voters head to the polls.
