      She does , and I have zero evidence of this , but she strikes me as a democrat. I’m not saying that she can’t be impartial, but first it’s pretty much impossible to not have an opinion on trump and again I have zero evidence of this but my guess is she keeps up
      With current events and the news coverage and stuff. More so than most people. And if you keep up with that stuff it’s very difficult to be impartial on this particular defendant. I believe she believes she could be impartial. But I just don’t think they are going to find 12 impartial jurors. My guess is the trial ends in a hung jury 8-4 in favor of guilty. And they will decide to not try him again

      That's good thinking but you can't think about all that when you are a juror and it's time to vote guilty or not guilty. You feelings and thoughts about what your vote is going to do doesn't come into play. You are to take all (if any), of the evidence and decide if the person is guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. Period.

      She would have been a good commentator during the election cyber interference claims, especially the Arizona issues. If I were a guest booking producer, I would keep her contact info on file in the event an expert is needed.

      election interference could be moved to a federal court, then it could be appealed forever, and he can self pardon. Keeping it as a state crime means he cant pardon himself if he's President. It's chess match.

    The reporter’s question regarding whether or not she’d had case-related discussions with other potential jurors is a clear indication that he’s never sat through a voie dire. Please ensure that the people reporting on this outside of the courthouse have a basic understanding of the jury selection process. Thank you.
