Good evening once again I'm Stephanie Rule. We are now 235 days away from the election

and you're in luck because tonight we have got a

very special night cap we're going to get to in just a moment featuring an

news of the day starting with Fulton County DA

Fawny Willis. She will remain on the Trump related Georgia election interference case.

Today a judge ruled that she could stay if Nathan Wade, the special prosecutor Willis had a relationship with, stepped down.

Hours after the judge's decision, Wade in fact did just that.

Here's my colleague Blaine Alexander with more.

He was front and center when Fani Willis announced her criminal indictment of Donald Trump.

But tonight, Nathan Wade, the man leading the prosecution against the former president for allegedly

trying to overturn Georgia's 2020 election results, has resigned.

The culmination of a month-long spectacle after one of Trump's co-defendants Michael

Roman exposed a romantic relationship between Wade and Fulton County DA

Fawny Willis who hired Wade on the case.

Roman accused Willis of financially benefiting from her relationship with

Wade after the two went on vacations together while working the case.

In a ruling today, Judge Scott McAfee said, while he did not find an actual conflict of interest in the case,

the prosecution team and gave Willis an ultimatum.

Either she and her office leave the case or Wade.

In a letter, Wade writes today, he's resigning to move this case forward as quickly as possible.
