A federal judge rejects a Justice Department request for personal information about election workers in Fulton County, Georgia, connected to the 2020 presidential election. Multiple outlets report that the subpoena seeks names and personal contact details for individuals who worked during the 2020 election in Fulton County. The ruling is described as an order quashing or blocking the subpoena, issued after a challenge to the government’s ability to obtain the requested information. One report identifies the judge as U.S. District Judge William Ray. The judge’s decision is presented as limiting what the DOJ can collect through the subpoena, with at least one source stating the DOJ cannot use the mechanism to obtain information on every person who worked in the election. The action is linked to the Justice Department’s investigation connected to claims of widespread fraud tied to President Trump’s statements about the 2020 election. The reports agree that the court denies the DOJ’s effort to obtain the names and personal information as requested.
