Georgia prosecutors want to begin trying former President Donald Trump and his allies for alleged crimes related to the 2020 election the same week that 16 states go to the polls in the presidential primaries, a move that would make the busiest day on the primary calendar even more chaotic.

The Fulton County, Georgia, district attorney is asking a judge to schedule Trumps trial on racketeering and other charges stemming from attempts to overturn the election beginning on March 4, 2024 the day before Super Tuesday. But Trumps lawyers are expected to slow down the proceedings, or seek to move the trial to federal court , where Trump might face a friendlier jury.

The trial could provide a bizarre televised split screen as Trump vies for the Republican presidential nomination while also fighting four separate legal cases that have yet to put a dent in his support with the GOP base.

Fulton County DA Fani Willis noted in her motion Wednesday the proposed date doesnt conflict with Trumps other legal cases in Florida, New York and Washington, D.C.
