A US judge has dismissed the Georgia election interference case against Donald Trump and his allies, marking the end of the final criminal prosecution related to the 2020 election. Prosecutor Pete Skandalakis successfully argued that the case belonged in federal jurisdiction rather than state courts, citing the impracticality of prosecuting a sitting president and parallels to federal cases already dropped by Special Counsel Jack Smith.
