@AJC reporter covering the Fulton County election probe, voting, elections and health care

[Tamar Hallerman @TamarHallerman]

I'm back from maternity leave and covering some new ground at the @ajc. Yes, I'll still be writing about the aftershocks of the Fulton election interference case, but also doing in-depth stories on voting, elections and health care on the ground here in Georgia. Let's connect!

A group of metro Atlanta DAs launched a challenge to a new Georgia law that could reshape politics across metro Atlanta by making it harder for Democrats to hold onto power in the state’s most populous region

The Voting Rights Act changed Georgia. Now Black officials fear ‘the worst.’

Kudos to @AnnaBower and @lawfare on obtaining and posting many of the Fulton special grand jury transcripts. We started going through them last night and here are some of the first notable tidbits.

Much more to come...

Georgia Republicans were under oath and asked if they were friends with Donald Trump. 😬 Here’s what they said: https://t.co/oW9ucu4ICw

The calls come in the wake of allegations that an ex inmate suffered severe neglect.

I won’t “sit in silence while the performance of the sheriff’s office continues to deteriorate to a level that can only be described as unconstitutional and dangerous,” one Dem commissioner said

Three Fulton Co commissioners called on residents to ask Gov. Kemp for an investigation to decide if Sheriff Patrick Labat should be suspended from office. Via @ReedWills1 https://t.co/VB6tx5ZIJl

Taking some time away from work/this app to focus on my newest assignment: parenthood.

I figured a 19-defendant RICO case was good prep for the stress and fire drills of life with a newborn but baby girl has humbled us all! Still, grateful and in love.

See you in the spring.

With the Georgia Trump case now over, Fulton County may be on the hook to pay Trump and his co-defendants millions in legal fees

[Greg Bluestein @bluestein]

The great @TamarHallerman has so thoroughly dominated coverage of this case for the last four years that the prosecutor even quoted her in Exhibit A of his argument. “Ms. Hallerman was right about this case.”

[Tamar Hallerman @TamarHallerman]

NEW: 🚨 The Fulton judge overseeing the Georgia election interference case against Trump, others just agreed to dismiss it 🚨

This comes shortly after a state prosecutor said the alleged criminal conduct amounted to more of a federal, not state, case
