00:02 David Schaefer and Kathy Latham, two defendants in Fannie Willis' Trump
00:05 election interference case, have called for her removal. They joined Michael Roman in
00:09 claiming Willis must be disqualified due to an alleged improper relationship with special
00:12 prosecutor Nathan Wade. Schaefer and Latham argue Willis financially benefited from Wade's
00:17 appointment and trips they took together. Schaefer, as GOP chair, is accused of being
00:20 a fake elector for Trump at the state capitol in 2020. Latham served as a Trump elector and
00:25 was charged for her alleged role in a Coffee County election data breach. Schaefer watched
00:29 the trial venue change, citing threats against Willis could endanger defendants. He also seeks
00:33 to strike the idea that GOP electors like him cast false votes for Democrats who've cast duly
00:37 elected votes. For all things money, visit Benzinga.com.
