So now it will likely go to the State's appellate court. I'd venture it won't be resolved by Election Day.

And now we get to find out if the US citizenry have the audacity to elect a convicted felon as president. Oh, what a precedent to set.

Well there’s one republican who likely won’t be voting for him in November now that he’s a convict. And that is Trump, since he realistically won’t be able to vote in Florida.
