The FBI has carried out a search warrant in Fulton County, Georgia, reportedly in connection with the 2020 election.
For years, former President Donald Trump has claimed that the Left orchestrated the theft of the 2020 presidential election. Recently, it was reported that Fulton County accepted over 300,000 early ballots that were missing poll worker signatures.
In December, the Justice Department filed a lawsuit against four states and one locality, seeking 2020 election records from Colorado, Hawaii, Massachusetts, Nevada, and Fulton County.

Federal agents carried out a law enforcement action, later confirmed as a sealed search warrant, Wednesday at a Fulton County election facility located in Fairburn, Georgia.
What we know: Multiple law enforcement vehicles and agents were seen at the county’s Election Hub and Operations Center in Fairburn, a site that opened in 2023 to centralize and modernize election operations.
A photojournalist with FOX 5 Atlanta observed agents outside the building as activity unfolded. Shortly after, FBI Atlanta confirmed agents were executing a court-authorized action at the facility’s address on Campbellton Fairburn Road. A spokesperson then told FOX 5 Atlanta that the FBI was there to conduct an active sealed search warrant.
A source told FOX 5 Atlanta that the FBI was there to take custody of Fulton County election ballots from 2020.
Authorities did not say what prompted the operation or what records or materials, if any, were being sought. The FBI said it could not release additional details just yet because the matter remains ongoing. The Department of Justice also declined to comment, according to FOX News Digital.
Fulton County’s election process has been at the center of scrutiny and public debate in recent years, starting with the trouble in 2020 resulting in then-former President Trump and 19 supporters being indicted for election interference by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis.
Don’t quote me on this, but I have a sneaky suspicion President Trump’s ‘wild claims’ that the 2020 election was actually stolen from him are going to turn out to be 100 percent true.
