If CNN is giving it a mere 80%, then hung jury. Probably overruled by judge.

In a criminal case, the judge can’t “overrule” a hung jury by finding Trump guilty. The Judge could order a new trial, deny a new trial, acquit Trump (like a JNOV in a civil case) but cannot find Trump guilty contrary to the hung jury
