Fulton County investigates Trump’s activities in other states: Report.

Georgia Investigation into Trump’s Alleged Election Subversion Expands to Other States

A Fulton County, Georgia, investigation into former President Donald Trump’s alleged efforts to subvert the 2020 election results is also looking into his activities in other states, according to a new report.

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis is seeking information from two firms that the Trump campaign commissioned to hire to find election fraud throughout the country after the 2020 election, the Washington Post reported Friday. The investigation has expanded to include “activities in Washington, D.C., and several other states,” two sources said.

Trump’s Campaign Paid Over $1 Million to Find Election Fraud

Trump’s campaign reportedly paid more than $1 million to Simpatico Software Systems and Berkeley Research Group but did not release the results after the firms did not surface evidence of widespread fraud.

“No substantive voter fraud was uncovered in my investigations looking for it, nor was I able to confirm any of the outside claims of voter fraud that I was asked to look at,” Simpatico Software Systems founder Ken Block told the Post in April. “Every fraud claim I was asked to investigate was false.”

The Washington Examiner contacted SSS and BRG for a response. At least one of the firms has been subpoenaed in the Georgia investigation, according to the Post.

Possible Charges Against Trump in August

Earlier this month, the district attorney signaled she may bring charges against the former president in August. That notice came after she asked judges in Fulton County not to schedule trials and in-person hearings in the first part of the month.

Willis began probing Trump after his call to Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger in January 2021, where he asked him to “find 11,780 votes.” Regarding the widely rebuked call Trump had with Raffensperger, legal experts have questioned whether uttering those words broke the law.

Investigation Focuses on Phone Calls to Georgia Officials

The focus of the investigation is also aimed at other phone calls made to multiple Georgia officials after Trump lost the election, including calls by some of his closest allies to his election fraud claims, such as attorneys Rudy Giuliani, Sydney Powell, and John Eastman.

The Washington Examiner reached out to the Trump campaign and Fulton County for comment.
