    So they are working late - maybe to be done with it tonight.

    Either way, it’s still wrong to leak the charges before the vote. The grand jurors could be swayed. That’s why they quickly removed the document from the website. If there was no harm in publishing it when they did, why remove it? How do you explain the case number?

    The DA is a “she” as far as I can tell, but you never know these days.

    The most logical explanation is that the draft indictment was posted in error and was removed from the website once the error was discovered. It was removed because it was in fact a draft document and not the actual indictment. Mistakes happen and they're not conspiracies.

    Imagine a 78 year old man, with all these indictments and still wins the presidency. That would be nothing short of amazing.

    You seem to be answering your own question--they would remove it quickly so as not to sway a jury (and also not to create an upheaval in the media). Nothing else squares with the notion that it was deliberate.

    And how would a GJ be swayed, other than in the abstract?

    And that the party leadership hasn't pushed him aside for a candidate who isn't in legal trouble for trying to overturn an election.
