FILE - Former President Donald Trump speaks during the Pray Vote Stand Summit, Friday, Sept. 15, 2023, in Washington. New York Gov. Kathy Hochul on Wednesday, Sept. 20, 2023, signed a bill setting the state’s presidential primary for April 2, potentially putting Trump on the ballot as he stands trial in Manhattan for a hush-money criminal case. ALBANY, N.Y. — — New York Gov.
Trump became the first former U.S. president in history to face criminal charges when he was indicted this year on charges in New York state stemming frommade during the 2016 presidential campaign to bury allegations of extramarital sexual encounters. He has pleaded not guilty. Since then, Trump has been indicted in a handful of other cases, including a federal classified documents case in Florida, a federal elections interference case in Washington and an election subversion case in Georgia. He also faces two civil trials in New York, one alleging he fraudulently misstated the value of assets and another regarding the alleged defamation of a writer who accused Trump of sexually assaulting her in the mid-1990s.
Primary elections are set for March 19 in Ohio, Florida, Illinois, Kansas and Arizona. Pennsylvania's state Senate on Wednesday approved a bill to move their state's primary to March 19 as well, though the proposal still requires passage in the state House of Representatives.Copyright 2023 The Associated Press.
