Federal Judge Denies Trump Co-Defendants' Requests to Move Georgia Trials

A federal judge has rejected the requests of three Trump co-defendants, Cathy Latham, David Shafer, and Shawn Still, to move their trials in the Fulton County election interference case to federal court. The judge ruled that presidential electors are not federal officers and therefore their cases should remain in state court. The judge also declined to move co-defendant Jeffrey Clark's case to a federal venue, stating that Clark had failed to demonstrate that removal of the prosecution by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis was warranted. Former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows' attempt to move his case was also denied by the judge.
