The Georgia Supreme Court on Tuesday sent a 2020 election lawsuit regarding Fulton County back to a lower court for reconsideration, adding another layer to the suit's twisting saga through the court system.
Former Trump advisor Jenna Ellis stated that a judge ordering a two-day trial over Kari Lake's election lawsuit is a "huge threshold victory" for election integrity.
Judge Peter Thompson wrote that the court has “reviewed” Lake’s “verified statement of election contest” and said the “matter will be set on an accelerated basis."
A Georgia judge on June 24 dismissed seven of nine claims in a Fulton County election lawsuit while allowing two to proceed that require the county to produce digital images of some 150,000 mail-in ballots that are at the center of plaintiffs’ allegations of fraud in the 2020 presidential election.
