Despite all of the investigations into her corruption, Fani Willis has just won the DA primary in Fulton County, Georgia — which includes the capital, Democrat-run city of Atlanta.
During the November election, she will face off against a first-time Republican challenger.
Take a look at the breaking news of Crooked Fani’s primary win:

Courtney Kramer won the Fulton County DA primary election for the Republican party and will go head-to-head with Fani in November.
She is a former intern for President Trump’s administration and ran unopposed.

Fox News has more details:
Embattled Georgia prosector Fani Willis survived her primary election challenge Tuesday night, and will face off against a GOP challenger in November.
Willis, the District Attorney for Fulton County, is leading the sweeping 2020 election interference case against former President Donald Trump and has been the subject of scrutiny many Republicans in the state and nationwide for her affair with special prosecutor Nathan Wade, which almost got her removed from the case.
Willis on Tuesday defeated Democrat attorney Christian Wise Smith in a rematch of their race four years ago. In the county that in 2020 voted 73% for President Joe Biden, she was favored to win.
WIlis is currently under investigation by Republicans in both chambers of the U.S. congress and two commissions in the Georgia state legislature.
Politico added:
Fani Willis, the prosecutor in the Georgia election interference case against Donald Trump, has won renomination in the Democratic primary on Tuesday, according to the Associated Press.
Willis, the Fulton County district attorney, easily defeated Democrat Christian Wise Smith. Willis and Smith, whom she also beat in the 2020 primary, both worked in the district attorney’s office under former District Attorney Paul Howard.
Willis is now set to face Republican lawyer Courtney Kramer in November. Kramer, who interned in the Trump White House, ran unopposed Tuesday. Willis is considered the heavy favorite for the general election in Fulton County, which includes Atlanta.
Willis brought charges against Trump last year for his role in trying to overturn the 2020 election results, as well as co-conspirators, which include Georgia GOP state legislators and the former head of the state Republican Party.
ADVERTISEMENTBut the case has stalled after a public filing in January alleged an affair between Willis and Nathan Wade, an outside attorney whom Willis hired under contract. Willis and Wade admitted that they were romantically involved but swore under oath that the romance did not begin until after Willis hired Wade in November 2021. Willis later suggested that racism was at the heart of the allegations lodged against her.
An Atlanta judge ordered in March that Willis could stay on the election interference case if Wade was removed from the team — and within hours of the ruling, Wade offered his resignation.
What do you think?
Will Fani remain DA or be bested out by Kramer come November?..
Or, will she end up disbarred before then?
