What is preventing the State of Georgia from charging Trump with campaign fraud?

[kentuck]

With the phone call asking (threatening) their SoS if he did not find 11,780 votes, which was one more than he needed?

This was a blatant crime in many folks' eyes. It was his most daring move, until his attempted coup on January 6th.

Why has Georgia not pressed charges? Are they blocked politically from doing so? Do they not have the authority? Do they think it is not enough to charge the former president with attempted campaign fraud?

1. These things take time. Hopefully not so much time that GA starts a fraudit like AZ

2. Isn't that in their plans?

To ask for an audit in Georgia, MI, and PA and other battleground states?

3. We've all heard the taped evidence. If they were going to charge trump, they would have by now.

4. I really thought Georgia would be the one to step forward.

But it appears they are content to let it pass.

5. Appears so. The Fulton County DA was supposedly taking it to a grand jury, but that was several

months ago.

While I would love to see him charged, I'm not sure how Fulton County -- essentially Atlanta -- bringing charges would go over in the rube areas of the state.

6. My guess would be that the elected officials, the Governor, SoS, and others...

...would not go along?

Even if there was an attempt to do so.
