Judge Scott McAfee is ruling on Fani Willis disqualification tomorrow

What is the projected outcome?

With the nation watching - hard to imagine him not doing what is obvious.

He’ll come across as a weak judge and/or partisan hack if he doesn’t.

But…. He might have a bright future of appointment from a Dem. That could be his motivation.

I’m of the opinion he DQs her solely based on the unanimous SCOTUS ruling last week on the Colorado ballot decision.

How he took this long is beyond me.

The prosecution is going to actually wind up with better, smarter, and probably more dogged lawyers handling the case. However, maybe they’ll be smart enough to realize they’ve got a bad case.

Disqualification is unlikely. Certainly possible, but unlikely.

He's coming up for reelection so he'll give each side a "win"

There’s 2 sets of precedent on how to rule here. I’m guessing he will rule that while it appears there might have been some irregular behavior, it was not proved beyond a doubt. Thus, setting up the appeal on which precendent the judge used…pushing the trial out much further. Also, gives time for the Governors office to open the commission who would now have the authority to remove Fani.
She’s an idiot for not just stepping away from all this. She’s a narcissist that doesn’t see the end of this path, is drastic for her
