Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis has weighed in again on what standard should be used by a judge to determine whether to remove her from Donald Trump's election interference case in Georgia.

The judge would have more leeway in the defense’s favor under an appearance standard. At any rate, Willis’ office probably hopes the brief helps strengthen its position after the state’s lawyer at Friday’s arguments seemed to struggle with some of McAfee’s inquiries. And while the standard is important, the question is ultimately what conclusion McAfee reaches under it. That’s where his role as the fact-finder comes in.
