Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee has dismissed some of the charges against former President Donald Trump and others in the 2020 Georgia election interference case. WABE politics reporter Sam Gringlas discusses the latest.
Meanwhile, Fred Hicks, an Atlanta-based political strategist, and Tammy Greer, a clinical assistant professor at Georgia State University in the Department of Public Management and Policy, provide a recap of the Georgia primary.
