The defense gets to voir dire the jury. There were still millions of votes for Trump in NY and many that didn't vote at all.

I don't think this is the case for grand juries...

Which is why they don't have the final say; the verdict is made by the trial jury after hearing from both sides.

Yeah that's pretty much the point I was trying to make. A lot of people seem to be getting confused about the process difference between a grand jury and the jury in a trial.
