Former President Donald Trump's sentencing for his New York hush money case has been postponed until after the November presidential election, with a new date set for November 26. Judge Juan Merchan cited the need to prevent any appearance of electoral influence in his decision, emphasizing the importance of a fair judicial process. Originally scheduled for September 18, the sentencing was delayed following Trump's request for more time to appeal based on a recent Supreme Court ruling regarding presidential immunity. Trump's legal team argues that the case should be dismissed altogether, labeling it as an election interference 'witch hunt'. Merchan is also set to rule on whether to vacate the jury's guilty verdict on November 12. Trump's campaign continues to assert his innocence and the validity of the case against him.
