I just don't see how she is going to be able to try all 19 at one time. She was surprisingly nice to allow them over a week to turn themselves in, they must turn themselves in by noon on Friday the 25th unless they are on a no-fly list or something, that's a lot of time for them to try and slink away.

The document leak from early today is going to give them something to grasp onto and scream about though. This entire indictment is a giant fuck you to all those slimy attorneys he surrounded himself with that encouraged the fake elector's scheme.

Edit: I also don't see any way she is going to get this trial started within six months.
