Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis will remain in office for another four years. Willis said that she is thankful to voters in Fulton County for trusting her to continue her work and will continue to seek justice for the community.
“Fulton County, thank you for trusting me with the honor of serving as your District Attorney and giving me four more years in this office,” Willis posted on X, formally Twitter.
Willis beat her opponent, Courtney Kramer, a former White House legal intern in the Donald Trump administration, by a 36 percent margin in Tuesday’s election.
While in office, she prosecuted the now president-elect for his efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 election. Kramer decided to run against Willis earlier this year, saying that the investigation was politically motivated and a waste of resources.
Another high-profile case Willis prosecuted was against rapper Young Thug. The Young Slime Life (YSL) gang case recently closed after the rapper entered a non-negotiated guilty plea to some of the charges and no contest to others. Both cases resulted in attacks against her personally and professionally, but she said her team was of great support.
Due to Trump’s 2024 win, the DA’s case is in limbo. As of now it is unclear how the case might proceed, if at all. It could possibly resume after he leaves office.
