Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis is reportedly still hoping to start former President Donald Trump‘s Georgia 2020 election interference trial before Election Day, even as she still faces the possibility of being disqualified from the case.

Willis is aiming to push forward with the trial and is expected to ask the judge for the trial to start as soon as this summer, a report from CNN citing three people familiar with Willis’s thinking said. The district attorney had previously asked for an Aug. 5 trial date, which would be three months before Election Day.
