Trump and Chesebro Plead Not Guilty in Georgia Election Case
Kenneth Chesebro, the attorney behind the fake electors plot in the 2020 election, has pleaded not guilty in the Georgia election subversion case. He is facing seven criminal charges, including violating Georgia's RICO act and conspiracy to commit forgery. Chesebro wants the court to expedite the turnover of "discovery" evidence ahead of his trial, scheduled for late October. Fulton County prosecutors aim to try the case with all 19 defendants in October, while some defendants seek separate trials or a move to federal court. Former President Donald Trump opposes a speedy trial.
