Two key players in the Georgia election interference case against former President Donald Trump have defeated challengers in Tuesday's election.
Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis and Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee both won.
McAfee won a nonpartisan contest, which means he will serve a full four-year term beginning in January.
As she moves on to the general election, the odds would seem to be in Willis' favor as well.
Fulton County includes most of the city of Atlanta and is heavily Democratic, about 73% of its voters having cast ballots for President Joe Biden in the 2020 election.
