Two counts against Trump in Fulton County election interference case dismissed
SUMMARY: A Fulton County Judge has dismissed two criminal counts against former President Donald Trump, citing they fall outside the state’s jurisdiction. Judge Scott McAfee’s ruling reduces Trump’s potential charges, leaving him with eight out of the original 13. The dismissed charges included accusations of conspiracy to file a fake certificate of voters from the 2020 Georgia election and submitting a false document regarding votes from ineligible individuals. This ruling coincides with the case being stalled for unrelated reasons, meaning if it progresses, Trump will face fewer charges in court.

Rep. Nikema Williams steps down as Democratic Party of Georgia chair
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.

Democrats will need to find another state party leader. Nikema Williams announced her departure Monday after the party required a chair employed full time.
