7. Getting tired of this argument

The jury isn’t polled at the start of the trial.

In fact, the jury is required to presume the defendant is innocent from the get-go.

Every single post of this type, and it’s pretty much every day now, fails to understand the process.

The votes weren’t there for Nixon when the process started either.
