Fulton County to file federal challenge over FBI 2020 election records seizure
TL;DR
Fulton County, Georgia, officials say they will seek a motion in the Northern District of Georgia to challenge the FBI’s seizure of 700 boxes of 2020 election materials, arguing the search warrant was improper and requesting the ballots be returned while protecting voter information; they claim the FBI copied records under a separate court order but there was no chain-of-custody inventory for the originals, and the FBI has not yet commented.
