Investigation of Fulton County’s 2020 election faces setback
Key Points:
- A federal judge dismissed a subpoena from the U.S. Department of Justice demanding the identities and personal details of thousands of 2020 Fulton County election workers.
- U.S. District Court Judge Billy Ray described the subpoena's scope as "staggering" and stated the requested records would not yield information sufficient to file viable charges.
- The ruling represents a setback for the Justice Department's criminal probe into alleged 2020 election "irregularities."
- Former President Donald Trump has repeatedly and falsely claimed the 2020 election was rigged after his loss to Joe Biden.
