The Department of Justice is seeking the names and information of every individual who worked in Georgia’s Fulton County during the 2020 election, according to a grand jury subpoena dated April 17 and served on the county’s elections director on April 20.
The subpoena requests the “name, position/function, residential and email addresses, and personal telephone number(s)” of thousands of workers involved in the election process, ranging from county employees who assisted on Election Day to bus drivers who operated mobile voting units, along with volunteers and temporary poll workers.
The filing directs Fulton County to send the requested records not to the grand jury itself, but to an out-of-state Justice Department attorney or to the FBI agent who authored the affidavit tied to the January seizure of the county’s 2020 election ballots and related materials.
County attorneys filed a motion Monday night to quash the subpoena, arguing against the release of employee and poll worker identities and contact details. The challenge comes months after the FBI’s January search of a Fulton County election warehouse, where ballots and other documents from the 2020 election were seized.
