Both sources focus on the existence of an FBI-led investigation and on allegations from residents about alleged payments and paperwork irregularities related to voter registration. As reported, the inquiry is ongoing and the specific scope of any subpoenas, interviews, or evidence being collected is not detailed in the provided excerpts.
