The Georgia prosecutor who charged former President Donald Trump with an illegal attempt to overturn 2020 election result in her swing state is raking in so much campaign cash that its making headlines.
Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis has raised a staggering $2.1 million as she — and Trump — run for reelection, the Atlanta Journal Constitution reported Wednesday.
In the local newspaper's morning newsletter, the story of Willis' funding topped updates about Hollywood star Julia Roberts (who will campaign for Vice President Kamala Harris) and Hurricane Milton as it barrels toward the southern coast.
The Atlantic Journal Constitution reported Willis, who still has $800,000 on hand, has raised more than candidates in several statewide races in 2022.

In comparison, Willis' GOP opponent Courtney Kramer has raised about $270,000.
Trump is just one of several big-name defendants Willis has slapped with criminal charges, but his election racketeering case may be the most closely watched.
Trump pleaded not guilty to charges that he spread voter fraud lies as he tried to bully state officials into appointing pro-Trump electors.
Willis has faced character attacks from Trump's lawyers who successfully managed to boot special prosecutor Nathan Wade from the case due to his personal relationship with the district attorney.
The case has also subjected Willis to political attacks from Trump allies such as Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) and conservatives in the Georgia state Senate who slapped the prosecutor with a subpoena over accusations of misconduct last month.
Willis challenged the subpoena in court then ignored the summons, which infuriated Greene.
"Her defiance is absolutely unacceptable," Greene wrote.
The Atlanta Journal Constitution's recent analysis of campaign finance records suggest a firm bloc of Georgia voters, who will take to the polls on Nov. 5 to vote for president, disagreed.
