A federal judge in Atlanta has denied a motion by former Justice Department official Jeffrey Clark to move his case related to the 2020 presidential election from state court in Georgia to federal court. Clark is charged with two counts as part of a racketeering case stemming from an alleged effort to subvert the election results. The ruling is a setback for Clark and the other defendants, who had hoped to have their cases heard in federal court, and will mean that Clark will be prosecuted in state court in Fulton County. The ruling is part of a larger effort by the Georgia Attorney General’s office to investigate election fraud and other crimes related to the 2020 election.
