Mark Meadows denies guilt in Georgia case, awaits federal court ruling.
Former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows Pleads Not Guilty in Election Interference Case
Former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows has pleaded not guilty to charges in the election interference case in Fulton County. He waived his arraignment appearance that was set for Wednesday.
Over the weekend, five other defendants in the case, including former President Donald Trump and 18 others, also entered not guilty pleas and waived their formal appearance in state court this week. The only remaining holdout is Misty Hampton, a former Coffee County election official, who is expected to enter her plea or appear for arraignment on Wednesday.
Charges and Trial Details
Meadows is facing charges of violating Georgia’s racketeering law and solicitation of violation of oath by a public officer. These charges are related to his alleged involvement in an effort to encourage alternate electors to claim that then-President Trump won the state in the 2020 election.
In addition to his plea, Meadows is also seeking to move his trial from state court to federal court. This move could potentially provide him with a more advantageous jury pool and would prevent his case from being livestreamed or televised.
