ATLANTA — Gov. Brian Kemp testified for roughly three hours Tuesday before the Fulton County special grand jury examining whether former President Donald Trump and his allies criminally meddled in Georgia’s 2020 elections.
The Republican, who cruised to reelection last week, is the highest-ranking state official to appear before the 23-person grand jury, which was convened in May to aid Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis with her criminal investigation.
Kemp’s closed-door testimony came hours before a Florida judge rejected an attempt from another witness, former national security adviser Michael Flynn, to kill his grand jury summons.
