And, if an attorney has a problem with them, he can strike them during jury selection.

From the article:

"Grant objected that these jurors should be disqualified for conflict of interest issues, the Judge did not find cause to dismiss these jurors at that time."

Could you point out to me where I misread the part where it appears as though the attorney was not able to "strike them during jury selection"?

Thanks in advance.

Attorneys can "strike" a number of jurors (I'm not sure of the number) during questioning.

Grant wanted to disqualify the jurors en masse because of some phoney "conflict of interest" claim, and preserve his strikes. Can't do that.
