A judge dismissed six counts in the Georgia criminal election case against Former President Donald Trump and five others. The dismissed counts accused them of soliciting public officers to violate their oaths. The counts related to efforts to delegitimize Biden's election win in Georgia. The defense argued the indictment did not detail the exact oaths alleged to be violated. The judge agreed the language was too generic and dismissed those six counts. However, other criminal counts against Trump and the defendants remain.
