SUMMARY: This afternoon, it was announced that special prosecutor Pete Scandalis will not criminally charge Lieutenant Governor Bert Jones in the 2020 election interference case. A Fulton County judge had previously ruled that District Attorney Fani Willis could not prosecute Jones due to her donation to his opponent. Scandalis determined that there was no evidence of criminal intent, noting that Jones sought legal counsel before participating as a fake elector. Jones accused Willis of misusing taxpayer money in an attempt to manipulate the judicial system.

SUMMARY: Rep. Nikema Williams has stepped down as chair of the Democratic Party of Georgia, transitioning to focus on her congressional duties. With the 2026 elections on the horizon, questions arise about the party’s direction following recent electoral challenges, including Donald Trump’s resurgence in Georgia. State Rep. Gabriel Sanchez emphasizes the need for the party to champion progressive values and address issues like affordable housing and healthcare. Democrats aim to regroup and broaden their appeal, particularly as off-year elections often favor the party out of power. Williams will remain involved on the state party’s executive board as a new chairperson is selected in the spring.
