Investigators in Georgia are looking into actions by former President Donald Trump as he tried to change the results of the election he lost. New evidence suggests that people close to Trump were involved in breaking into the voting system in 2021, several news sources say.
They have found text messages and emails that directly link Trump's supporters to this breach in the voting system. This shows that the plan to breach the system came from the top, possibly from Trump's campaign, in his attempt to change the results of the 2020 election. CNN reported this.
Someone named Misty Hampton, who used to work with elections in Coffee County, sent out a message. She falsely said, without proof, that voting machines in the county could change votes to help another candidate, according to the Guardian.
In December, when Trump was trying to find support for his claims that the election was not fair, Coffee County was named in plans to take voting machines away. CNN says these were drafts of orders for Trump.
