Fulton County sued the Trump administration for the repossession of 2020 election files taken by the FBI in a raid last week.

The lawsuit was filed on Wednesday, announced at a press conference led by Fulton County Board of Commissioners Chairman Robb Pitts. The chairman spoke in grandiose terms, framing the lawsuit as a global fight for democracy. He warned that the “Constitution itself is at stake in this fight.”

“I committed to the voters of Fulton County and the world, for that matter, that we will use every resource at our disposal to fight for their vote, and that we will fight using all resources against those who seek to take over our elections,” Pitts said.

He said the county doesn’t even know what was taken, as they didn’t have copies of the material and hadn’t taken an inventory previously.

“We don’t know where they are. We don’t know, really, who has them,” Pitts said. “We don’t know what they’re doing with them. Are they being tampered with? I can use my imagination, and I would certainly hope not. But we just — we don’t know.”

According to a copy of the search warrant, agents were authorized to seize all physical ballots, tabulator tapes, electronic ballot images, and voter rolls generated during the 2020 election from the county’s main election facility, along with related electronic data tied to ballot tabulation and voter registration. The FBI justified the raid over potential violations of federal laws regarding the preservation of election records and the submission of fraudulent votes.

Federal officials have not identified any suspects, and the target of the investigation remains sealed.

Fulton County spokeswoman Jessica Corbitt told The New York Times that the lawsuit was filed in a federal court in Georgia. The county also hopes to fully unseal the search warrant.

Adding to the intrigue was the presence of Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard at the raid, the reasoning for which remains unclear.
