State Sen. Shawn Still, who was one of the false electors in 2020, is trying to have his case moved to federal court.

The Norcross Republican faces seven counts, including racketeering, impersonating a public officer, forgery, and making false statements and writings. He was booked early Friday morning at the Fulton County Jail and released on a $10,000 bond. 

Still is one of 19 defendants who were indicted last week in the Fulton County election interference case.
