Fulton County Officials Respond After FBI Seizes Ballots

(AURN News) — Fulton County Board of Commissioners Chairman Robb Pitts had a message for the FBI during a press conference, responding to agents seizing ballot records.

“And the president himself — to stay the hell out of Fulton County,” Pitts said. “As long as those documents were here in Fulton County, in our elections hub under our care, I was confident — confident — that they were safe and secure. Once they left that facility last night in those FBI trucks, I don’t know where they are now. I don’t know who has ’em. I don’t know what they’re doing with them. Are they opening the boxes? Are they stuffing other ballots in there? I have no clue. I can use my imagination.”

The FBI obtained a warrant to seize 2020 ballots, but Georgia officials said the move was about intimidation and distraction.

The warrant covered the county’s election hub and operations center. The FBI has not provided any further information.
