After the former president teased the publication of a “large, complex, detailed but irrefutable report” that he has falsely alleged took place in Georgia during the 2020 election, Georgia Republican Gov. Brian Kemp responded to Donald Trump’s persistent charges of election fraud. At his Bedminster, New Jersey, estate, Trump promised to announce the results at 11 a.m. on Monday. “Based on the results of this CONCLUSIVE Report, all charges should be dropped against me… There will be a complete EXONERATION,” Trump dubiously wrote on Truth Social.

“The 2020 election in Georgia was not stolen,” Kemp responded on X, formerly Twitter. “For nearly three years now, anyone with evidence of fraud has failed to come forward – under oath – and prove anything in a court of law. Our elections in Georgia are secure, accessible, and fair and will continue to be as long as I am governor. The future of our country is at stake in 2024 and that must be our focus.”
Kemp was one of the star witnesses in District Attorney Fani Willis’ grand jury probe, along with Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger. “The most basic principles of a strong democracy are accountability and respect for the Constitution and rule of law,” Raffensperger said in a statement after the indictment. “You either have it, or you don’t.”
A former prosecutor who previously worked in the same office as Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis will preside over the criminal case against former U.S. President Donald Trump for attempting to rig the 2020 election in Georgia.
According to papers from the Fulton County Superior Court, Judge Scott McAfee will preside over the case against Trump, which contends that the Republican was a part of a plot to reverse his loss to Democrat Joe Biden in the state. Cases are allocated to judges at random.
