Michael Cohen Proudly Shares His ‘I Voted’ Sticker
Newly minted Democrat Michael Cohen voted in New York on Tuesday, tweeting that he was “happy” to see a packed polling station.
Cohen, President Trump’s former lawyer who pleaded guilty to eight charges, including campaign finance violations, shared a photo of his “I Voted” sticker in the palm of his hand. It’s unclear where in the state he casted his ballot.

Cohen recently posted support for Andrew Gillum, the Florida Democratic gubernatorial candidate. Gillum has been supported by George Soros, a liberal megadonor and Trump antagonist.
Cohen, who once said he’d take a bullet for Trump, pleaded guilty to violating tax and campaign finance laws earlier this year. He said he made hush-money payments to porn star Stormy Daniels at Trump’s direction.
Cohen re-registered as a Democrat last month. He had changed his party affiliation when he agreed to serve as the GOP’s deputy finance chair.
