Fake Trump electors ask judge to disqualify Fulton DA from Georgia inquiry
The group wrote in a court filing Tuesday that they are"inextricably intertwined" with state Sen. Burt Jones , one of the so-called fake electors whom Fulton County Superior Court Judge Robert McBurney recently ruled cannot be investigated by Willis due to a conflict of interest after she hosted a fundraiser for Jones's Democratic opponent.
A special grand jury convened by Willis, a Democrat, is investigating whether Trump and people in his orbit illegally attempted to influence the 2020 election in Georgia. Still, Trump's allies used the existence of those alternate electors as part of their justification to pressure then-Vice President Mike Pence to stall the Jan. 6, 2021, certification and send electoral votes back to several battleground states where GOP-led legislatures could try to overturn the results over concerns of fraud and irregularities. Lawmakers, along with Pence, reconvened that night after the Capitol riot and certified Biden's victory.
