Under Florida law, if a voter has an out-of-state conviction, Florida will defer to that state's laws for how a felon can regain his or her voting rights. or Trump, that means he will benefit from a 2021 New York law that allows people with felony convictions to vote as long as they're not serving a term of incarceration at the time of the election. For other Floridians with felony convictions, the rules are not so simple.
