I thought in order to be summoned for jury duty you had to register to vote... which is why I never registered to vote.... BECAUSE I DIDN'T WANT TO DO JURY DUTY!
But I looked it up on Google and ChatGPT and they both said you can be summoned even if you didn't register to vote.
I'm a little scared, I'm very sensitive to negativity which is why I don't watch the news, because it's full of negativity, and I think it'll be stressful having to "decide" wether or not someone should go to jail.
I'm also worried whichever I choose I'm going to get backlash, if I say "guilty" I'm going to get backlash, if I say "not guilty" I'm going to get backlash.
