Judge Blocks DOJ’s Election Worker Data Request | Charlotte News
Description
A federal judge has blocked the Department of Justice’s sweeping subpoena demanding personal contact info for every 2020 Fulton County election worker, calling it an unreasonable fishing expedition with no legal basis — especially since the statute of limitations has expired for any potential crimes. The judge sided with the county, which argued the request was politically motivated and would deter future election workers. This decision comes after the FBI seized election documents earlier this year, and while the investigation continues, this particular probe into personal data has been shut down — a major win for privacy and a reminder that grand jury powers aren’t limitless.
