CNN —Former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows and five other defendants charged in the election interference case in Fulton County pleaded not guilty Tuesday and waived their arraignments in new court filings.
Jeffrey Clark, a former Justice Department official who is similarly seeking to move his case to federal court, also pleaded not guilty in a court filing.
He also urged Georgia state lawmakers to appoint fake GOP electors to replace the legitimate slate of Democratic electors.
Shafer has previously claimed that the fake electors scheme came at the direction of Trump and the Trump campaign.
Shafer and Latham are also seeking to move their cases from state court to federal court.
