Raw Story
More information emerged Wednesday about why President Donald Trump's administration raided an election office in Georgia on Wednesday.
Greg Bluestein, chief political reporter for the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, received a copy of the warrant Trump's FBI used to enter the Fulton County Clerk's office and posted it on X.
The warrant confirmed suspicions among some analysts that the raid was tied to Trump's insistence that he won Georgia in the 2020 presidential election.
The warrant gave Trump's FBI access to all records related to suspected record retention and other criminal violations that occurred during the 2020 general election.
Peters has appealed to Trump for a pardon, although the president cannot pardon people for state crimes.
