The Republican-led Georgia Senate will vote on creating a committee to open a full-scale investigation over her handling of the 2020 election interference indictment case.

Legislation introduced this week accused Willis of being in an “improper relationship” with Nathan Wade, a special prosecutor hired by Willis to lead the election interference case against former President Donald Trump and others.

[This seems a little premature at the moment. Right now, Willis critics have the advantage in highlighting her politicization of the RICO case as well as her conflicts of interest. This effort might give Willis an argument that it’s her critics who are politicizing it. The state senate should at least wait for the judge’s hearing on February 15 to see whether the court will deal with the situation properly. — Ed]

The GOP-controlled Georgia State Senate on Friday approved the creation of a committee to investigate Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis by a 30-19 vote, citing affair allegations against her and special prosecutor Nathan Wade.
