ATLANTA — The Fulton County special grand jury investigating potential interference in Georgia’s 2020 elections is seeking testimony from a new batch of former President Donald Trump’s allies, including ex-Georgia Rep. Newt Gingrich.
In addition to the former House speaker, jurors are requesting testimony from Michael Flynn, Trump’s ex-national security adviser, and former White House counsel Eric Herschmann in mid- and late November.
The petitions, technically known as certificates of material witness, were filed Friday and approved by Fulton Superior Court Judge Robert McBurney. Once greenlit by a judge in a witness’ home state, they essentially function as subpoenas.
