The FBI has dedicated more personnel to investigate the 2020 election in Georgia, with 260 additional staff members assigned to the case. This development comes amid efforts by the Justice Department and the Trump administration to ramp up election-related investigations.
Investigation Details
The investigation is focused on the 2020 presidential election, which President Donald Trump claimed was stolen from him. The FBI has served a warrant at an elections office in Fulton County, Georgia, seizing 700 boxes of election materials. Federal prosecutors have also charged a small number of people with improper voter registration.
The Justice Department has demanded details about thousands of election workers who assisted Fulton County in the 2020 vote-counting. The FBI’s investigation is a priority, according to an internal memo, and some of the intelligence personnel will work on the investigation remotely.
