Fulton County District Attorney Fannie Willis is facing a tough re-election battle as she contends with not only high-profile cases but also political challenges from two opponents vying for her position.
One of her challengers is Christian Y. Smith, a former Fulton County prosecutor and Atlanta solicitor, who has announced his intention to run in the Democratic primary. Smith, a progressive Democrat, has taken the initial step of filing paperwork for candidacy, although he has not fully committed to the race yet.
