Trump-linked operatives discussed using data from a voting breach in attempt to decertify 2021 Georgia Senate race
Jim Penrose, a former National Security Agency official who worked alongside Trump attorney Sidney Powell to access voting machines in Coffee County, Georgia, communicated with Doug Logan, CEO of a firm that allegedly runs audits of voting systems.
“Here’s the plan. Let’s keep this close hold,” Penrose wrote. “We only have until Saturday to decide if we are going to use this report to try to decertify the Senate run-off election or if we hold it for a bigger moment,” Penrose added, referring to a potential lawsuit related to the impending confirmation of Democrat Jon Ossoff’s triumph in the runoff.
Georgia District Attorney Fani Willis is leading a criminal investigation into the scheme to breach voting systems. Willis has subpoenaed several individuals in connection to the probe, including Powell and former Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani.
Former prosecutor Michael Zeldin told CNN that the report suggests violations of multiple state and federal laws.
