Harrison Floyd, one of 18 people charged alongside former President Donald Trump in Georgia on racketeering charges over their challenge of the 2020 election results, is demanding a change of venue for his trial.

“Defendant Harrison Floyd contends that he cannot impanel a fair and impartial traverse jury in Fulton County, Georgia because of the media coverage, negative governmental press conferences, and the political bias of potential jurors,” reads the new motion.
