Trump's election interference case in Georgia got tossed last week, but the fallout from 2020 is still messing with state politics heading into the midterms. The Justice Department has been going after Fani Willis, the Atlanta prosecutor who originally charged Trump, and they've already sent out dozens of subpoenas. Federal prosecutors are also trying to get their hands on tens of thousands of ballots from the 2020 election.
The case against Trump fell apart after Willis got kicked off it because she was dating the lawyer she hired to run the prosecution. Trump had tried to pressure Georgia Republicans to overturn his 2020 loss there, including that infamous call where he asked the secretary of state to find enough votes. The whole situation is splitting up the Republican primary races, with Lieutenant Governor Burt Jones attacking opponents like Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger for not backing Trump's fraud claims.
