However, in the 2020 general election, the voter turnout in Manhattan was approximately 61.9%. Statistically that means approximately .5 jurors are Trump voters. Rounded, that's one. It only takes one MAGA cultist to have disillusioned reasonable doubt and hang this jury.

I did a data project for school charting NYC donations to Obama and Romney. Obama barely out-raised Romney, and he had to really count on hundreds of donors. While Romney had far less donors, but they gave almost as much money.
