Survey Reveals 66% of Americans Desire a Trump Election Interference Case Verdict Prior to 2024 Presidential Election

TL/DR –

A recent poll found that almost two-thirds of Americans want a verdict on former President Donald Trump’s federal election subversion case before the 2024 presidential election. Nearly half of the respondents, across political lines, labelled it “essential”. The trial date had originally been set for March 4, 2024, but was postponed due to the DC Circuit Court of Appeal’s ruling rejecting Trump’s claim of presidential immunity from prosecution for alleged crimes connected to trying to unlawfully remain President.

Trial Date Postponed

The trial date for the postponed election interference case was initially set for March 4th, 2024. However, pretrial motions were paused pending a recent ruling from the DC Circuit Court of Appeal. On February 6, the court unanimously rejected Trump’s claim of presidential immunity from prosecution.

Potential Further Delay

Given that Trump appealed the immunity decision to the U.S. Supreme Court, the trial may face more delays. The timeline depends on how quickly the Supreme Court can decide on the issue.
