Georgia Judge Throws Out 6 Charges in Trump Election Subversion Case
--------------------------------------------------------------------

In Georgia, a judge tossed out six of the charges in the wide-ranging
election subversion case against Trump and some of his 18 co-defendants.
Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott Mc Afee said the charges, which
relate to Trump pressuring officials into violating election laws, "lack
detail" but that prosecutors could seek a reindictment on those counts.
This comes as Judge Mc Afee is expected to announce his decision soon on
whether to disqualify Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis from
the case over an alleged improper relationship with a special
prosecutor.
