spial counsel jack smith s election conspiracy case in the defamation suit, all in the midst of the iowa caucuses. funny willis s case in georg could start one day before super tuesday if it goes as she is asking that is when voters in more than a dozen states are also going to go to the polls. georgia voters, eight days later, are going to be casting their primary votes. and this does not even factor in the classified documents case and when that could happen. trump, and his 18 codefendants in georgia tonight, have nine more days to voluntarily surrender, which, we are told, is what happened at the fulton county jail in atlanta. so far, we are told that no one has turned themselves in and, instead, trump s attorneys are right now in talks about the details of what that surrender will look like and when it could happen. to discuss more tonight with two political veterans than jones, a former obama administration official, and kristin soltis anderson, a republican strategist and p
we were thinking they could limit themselves to just discreet things in georgia. from reading this, it appears what they have done is gone much broader than we first anticipated. and we are showing an image of the county clerk s hand got some documents to those in the courthouse to our reporters and others, we are expecting to hear from funny willis at any moment, julie sense of how much detail she will go into? we don t yet, anderson, we do know that one of the things that she obviously has to be mindful of is the fact that this is a case that is now in the hands of the court. and she is going to, have this is going to go trial. that is the intent here. so we anticipate that she is going to keep her comments for absolutely more broad, maybe underscoring the importance of bringing this case. why this case is being brought. the message that she wants to bring forward. why is doing in the first, place obviously two years after this investigation.
while you were talking. i was counting its 19 people named in the indictment 19 along with the charges. my question to you is, can you can you prioritize these in any capacity? you as a prosecutor have now opened the investigation. you have invited the defenses that all 19 individuals can bring collectively individually or, in part, they can sign joint defense agreements. good luck getting all of these folks arraigned in the next coming months, and that s just the instigation of the process. then discovery comes in and every individual has the same constitutional rights as donald j. trump, even though he s the lead in this indictment because he s currently going to be the republican nominee. for the presidency of the united states , the amount of evidence that has to be challenging pretrial litigation is going to be so heavy for one defendant now you have 19. we should note the clock. it s about 18 minutes past the hour, almost 18 minutes and 30 seconds past the hour. we anticipate thi
