FBI agents executed a search warrant on Wednesday for an election center in Fulton County, Georgia, seeking to seize ballots in a significant escalation of the Trump administration's efforts to investigate a jurisdiction that Trump has continued to criticize over his 2020 defeat in the state.

No doubt, they'll find "something" that they'll blow out of proportion and act like warrants federal control over state and local elections while election law experts cry foul and begin explaining is not warranted and is a massive constitutional overreach/violation for the federal government.

Then expect this to happen in other large blue areas of swing states that tend to be the tipping point of who wins or loses the states.

There's only one thing Georgia could have done to prevent this Trump raid from happening:

Keep the Epstein Files there.

Trump is going to change several thousands of those ballots he took.

What they're going to do is review the ballots and a large percentage of democrats are all of a sudden are going to have their registrations cancelled.

This is going to happen in all swing states.

With a month window to certify the elections it is going to create a nightmare of chaos that they are hoping will lead to a GOP win.

Gee...I wonder why Trump wants poll data.

Statue of limitations for the 2020 election are up, so he's not using it for legal reasons.

#11 Alex, he's looking for the "gotcha" stuff so that his minions/peons can run with it.

And inevitably, there are some "irregularities" there, somewhere. Irregularities such as "wrong address," "maiden name," "deceased." You know, the inevitable that happens when one is dealing with the records of almost 1,000,000 registered voters.

Never mind that such "irregularities" would be found in every single voting district across the USA, large or small.

Nope, even one single "irregularity" would be enough to let loose the self-righteousness of Trump's minions/peons, and the resulting "hahahha's" from all the usual suspects, especially this one.

Count on it.

Well, on the bright side, at least it was a search warrant that got executed and not a poll worker...
