The affidavit supporting an FBI search of Fulton County’s election offices was unsealed on Tuesday.
U.S. District Judge J.P. Boulee, a Trump appointee, ordered the unsealing of documents pertaining to the government’s seizure of ballots and other materials related to the 2020 election in January.
Some allegations of impropriety relating to the voting process in 2020 “have been disproven, while some of those allegations have been substantiated, including through admissions by Fulton County,” FBI Special Agent Hugh Raymond Evans wrote in an affidavit.
“This warrant application is part of an FBI criminal investigation into whether any of the improprieties were intentional acts that violated federal criminal laws,” Evans wrote.
The investigation stems from former Trump campaign lawyer Kurt Olsen’s referral, according to the affidavit. Olsen joined the administration in October.
The FBI’s warrant permitted the seizure of all physical ballots, tabulator tapes, ballot images, and voter rolls from the 2020 General Election in Fulton County.
“Claims that the 2020 election results were fraudulent or otherwise invalid have been exhaustively reviewed and, without exception, refuted,” county attorney Y. Soo Jo wrote in a Feb. 5 memo seeking the return of seized property. “Eleven different post-election lawsuits, challenging various aspects of Georgia’s election process, failed to demonstrate fraud.”
Fulton County “stated that tabulator tapes accounting for 315,000 ballots were not properly signed” during a Dec. 9, 2025, meeting, the affidavit notes. County attorney Ann Brumbaugh said they did “not dispute that the tapes were not signed” at the meeting, according to Atlanta News First.
“Georgia has the most secure elections in the country, and all voters were verified with photo ID and lawfully cast their ballots,” Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger wrote on X in December. “A clerical error at the end of the day does not erase valid, legal votes.”
Trump is now seeking over $6.2 million in legal fees since the election interference case brought against him by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis, who was disqualified from pursuing the case, was dismissed in November.
