Former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows pleaded not guilty to charges in the election interference case in Fulton County, waiving his arraignment appearance set for Wednesday.
Over the weekend, five other defendants in the case that names former President Donald Trump and 18 others entered not guilty pleas and waived their formal appearance in state court this week. The remaining holdout is former Coffee County election official Misty Hampton, who will likely enter her plea or appear for arraignment on Wednesday.
The former chief of staff is also seeking to move his trial from state court to federal court, which could result in a more advantageous jury pool and would shield his case from being livestreamed or televised.This is a developing story and will be updated.
