Judge Dismisses Six Charges in Trump's Georgia Election Case

A judge in Atlanta quashed six charges against former President Donald J. Trump and his allies in the Georgia election interference case, leaving the rest of the racketeering indictment intact. The ruling, which did not weaken the core of the case, was not related to a defense effort to disqualify the district attorney leading the case. The charges that were quashed were related to allegations of soliciting public officials to break the law, while the racketeering charge remains in place.
