A Georgia judge has agreed with prosecutors to drop a sweeping racketeering case against Donald Trump and his allies for their efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election results in the state, marking the end of a historic series of criminal cases against the president.
The case accused Trump and his co-defendants of leading a “criminal enterprise” to overturn his loss in the state, using a so-called “fake elector” scheme to falsely assert his victory while seeking to seize control of voting machines, intimidate election workers and push the state’s top election official to “find” votes Trump would need to win.
