Indictments and federal charges not affecting elections like in years past

FILE - U.S. Rep. Henry Cuellar , D-Laredo, talks to a member of the media during a campaign event, on Wednesday, May 4, 2022, in San Antonio. Cuellar , a 17-year incumbent and one of the last anti-abortion Democrats in Congress, is in his toughest reelection campaign, facing a May 24, 2022, primary runoff against progressive Jessica Cisneros. Now in an election year, many are wondering if federal allegations will equal a loss for people at the ballot box.

But as musician Bob Dylan once wrote, “The times they are a changing,” according to Taylor. He says the public is beginning to care less about political antics. Taylor's point is further evidenced by poll numbers for former president Donald Trump, who is currently facing four separate indictments. He won the Republican primary in a landslide and is currently neck and neck with President Joe Biden.

Director of the Warrior Defense Project at St. Mary's University School of Law Jeffrey Addicott says one reason for this recent phenomenon may be the erosion of public trust in the government.
