"Fort Pierce: A Conservative Haven for Trump Trial Jury Pool?"
The judge overseeing the Mar-a-Lago documents case has signaled that the trial will take place in a court likely to have a conservative jury pool, in the Fort Pierce courthouse where she normally sits. The region that feeds potential jurors to the courthouse includes one swing county and four deep red counties that overwhelmingly voted for former President Donald Trump in 2016 and 2020. The location could provide Trump a favorable jury pool, but the judge did leave open the possibility that the trial could be moved.
