American Oversight v. Fulton County, Pa., and Wake Technology Services, Inc. — Election Officials’ Communications

Trump’s refusal to acknowledge the results of the 2020 election and concede to President Biden fanned the flames of dangerous conspiracy theories and social unrest. American Oversight seeks to shed light on ways federal and state officials abetted his efforts by promoting baseless claims of voter fraud to undermine the election’s legitimacy — and the next administration.
