On Wednesday, the FBI executed a search warrant at the Fulton County, Georgia, election office, located south of Atlanta. The FBI's Atlanta field office confirmed the search, but the warrant's specific purpose and scope remain unclear. Fulton County officials are currently trying to determine the nature and target of the FBI's actions. Fulton County was central to Donald Trump's false claims of voter fraud in the 2020 election, which he lost in Georgia. The Justice Department's civil rights division previously filed a lawsuit against the county in December seeking access to 2020 election ballots.
