Fani Willis, the Fulton County District Attorney in Georgia who brought charges against former President Donald Trump over efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election, has won her bid for reelection. Willis, a Democrat, faced a challenge from Republican Courtney Kramer, a lawyer who interned in the White House under Trump. Despite Kramer's arguments that the case against Trump was a waste of public resources, Willis easily secured a second four-year term. The Associated Press and local TV stations have projected her victory. Willis's jurisdiction includes the greater Atlanta area.
