Fulton County Files Motion to Block DOJ Subpoena for 2020 Election Worker Data

The Fulton County Board of Registration and Elections is challenging a federal grand jury subpoena from the Department of Justice. The DOJ is seeking personal information about thousands of people who worked during the 2020 election. County officials filed a legal motion to quash the subpoena on Tuesday. They argue that the request is an unnecessary federal intrusion into how the state manages its own election processes. This legal battle comes as the DOJ continues to investigate matters related to the 2020 election cycle. The county board maintains that protecting the identities of election workers is necessary for the security and integrity of future voting operations.
