President Trump will not sue in federal court over the Georgia election.

Donald Trump says he won't seek to move his Georgia election interference case from state court to federal court.
The former president's attorneys have told a Fulton County court that he will not seek a change of venue in the extensive Rico case in which he and 18 others are charged. The move comes three weeks after former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows' request to move his case to federal court was denied by a judge.
Trump and all the other defendants, including former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani, have said they will plead not guilty to charges that they plotted to overturn the results of the 2020 election in that state. Trump is facing 13 criminal charges as part of the Rico case.
In a statement, he said his decision was based on his "reasonable belief that this honorable judge intends to fully and completely enforce his constitutional right to a fair trial and guarantee him due process of law during his trial in state court in Fulton County, Georgia. "
The court statement also says, "President Trump now notifies the court that he will NOT seek to move his case to federal court. "
Trump is the first and only former or incumbent president to face criminal charges, and he faces a total of 91 criminal charges in his four criminal indictments by state and federal prosecutors.
Special prosecutor Jack Smith charges him with four felonies related to his efforts to stay in power after the 2020 election.

Federal Judge Tanya Chutkan set a trial date for March 4, the day before Super Tuesday's primary election.
Trump also faces 40 federal criminal charges, Attorney Smith accuses him of illegally hoarding classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida after leaving the White House. The case is expected to go to trial in May 2024.
He is also accused in New York of falsifying business records in connection with a $130,000 payment to pornographic film actress Stormy Daniels ahead of the 2016 election. Trump was indicted in March and is expected to be tried on March 25, 2024. He has pleaded not guilty in each of those cases and accused prosecutors of "election interference" and trying to derail his run for a second term as president in 2024.
