A Las Vegas judge told at least two felons during sentencing proceedings that if they adhered to the terms of their probation they’d likely have their voting rights restored on time to cast a ballot for President Donald Trump in the 2020 election.
According to a pair of transcripts obtained by the Nevada Independent, District Court Judge Susan Johnson made the remarks to at least two defendants pleading guilty to felony charges back in July. Several criminal defense attorneys said they’ve heard similar remarks during sentencing, one of them claiming such comments made him “uncomfortable.”
Nevada law bars people convicted of a violent felony from voting without court permission, while the Nevada Judicial Code prohibits judges from allowing “family, social, political, financial, or other interests or relationships to influence” conduct.
It also notes judges should not “publicly endorse or oppose a candidate for any public office.”
