The U.S. Justice Department is requesting information about election workers who worked during the 2020 presidential election in Georgia’s Fulton County. Multiple outlets report that the department seeks the names of all people who worked in that election in the county, along with personal contact information in filings referenced by NBC News. The request is tied to legal action in which the Justice Department asks Georgia officials for the records. Fulton County is a large, predominantly Democratic jurisdiction, and the coverage notes that Donald Trump has previously alleged widespread voter fraud there, claims that have been described as false by the outlets summarizing the issue. The reporting indicates the Justice Department’s request comes through court filings and is directed at obtaining the information as part of an investigation or related legal process. Other specific details about the scope of the request, the legal basis, or how the information will be used are not fully described in the provided excerpts.
