Democratic Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis’ primary opponent, Christian Wise Smith, debated an empty podium after Willis skipped the event.
Democratic Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis’ political opponent debated with an empty podium after Willis skipped the county’s first Democratic Party debate, local reports show. Willis is the Georgia district attorney who brought forth the election inference case against former President Trump, charging him and 18 co-defendants with racketeering over allegations they tried to overthrow the 2020 election.
Smith did not take issue with Willis prosecuting Trump or the case itself, instead saying Willis has 'to do things differently.' Willis did not attend the debate event, which was sponsored by the Atlanta Press Club, to co-host the second annual 'Self Care Fair' with an Atlanta city councilwoman in honor of Crime Victims’ Rights Week. Willis is also focusing on the continued prosecution of Trump, Fox 5 also cited as to why she was not present for the debate.
