Facts

  • Surveillance video obtained by CNN and The Washington Post allegedly shows the former GOP chair for Coffee County, Ga., leading operatives for then-Pres. Trump's attorney, Sidney Powell, into the county election offices on Jan. 7, 2021 - the same day as a voting-system breach.1
  • Powell was a prominent figure promoting Trump's election fraud theories.1
  • The Georgia Bureau of Investigation is investigating the breach, which is also part of the Ga. District Attorney's probe into potential interferences by Trump's campaign into the results of the 2020 election.2
  • The former Chair, Cathy Latham, was one of 16 Republicans who were part of the 'fake elector' scheme that's now being investigated by federal and state authorities. She signed a certificate declaring Trump the winner of the 2020 election in Ga. despite Biden's popular vote victory in the state.3
  • Another video apparently shows two technology consultants making two visits to the same elections office together in Jan. 2021, with one consultant appearing to visit five other times on his own. Both men are being investigated for alleged breaches of voting machines in Michigan.3
  • Previously, it was reported that Powell copied software and data from Dominion Voting Systems machines in Coffee County, and she's now under investigation by the GBI.3

Narratives

  • Democratic narrative, as provided by Huffington Post. The evidence that people close to Trump were accessing voting information for nefarious reasons keeps mounting. Powell is a conspiracy theorist who’s bought multiple baseless and debunked challenges to overturn the 2020 election results, and Latham was a fake elector. Both were already under investigation before these videos surfaced, and now investigators are clearly closing in on them, and possibly Trump.description
  • Pro-Trump narrative, as provided by Federalist. Investigations like the one in Georgia are political weapons being used by Democrats to benefit their party and raise their own profile for personal gain. If Democrats had been accused of similar things, there would be little action taken. These accusations are double standards and a witch hunt.
