The state elections board now says it found no evidence of any election fraud at State Farm Arena during the November 2020 election.
Former President Donald Trump and his associates pointed to State Farm Arena as part of their allegations saying it was the center of voter fraud.
Channel 2 investigative reporter Justin Gray has learned that the state elections board now wants to send a letter of apology to two elections workers targeted by conspiracy theorists.
The state election board decision was unanimous and comes after looking at the results of a lengthy two-year investigation by Secretary of State investigators and agents with the Georgia Bureau of Investigation and the FBI.
It was the claims from former New York City Mayor and Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani that launched a nationwide conspiracy theory of false claims about election fraud with the counting of ballots at State Farm Arena.
“They took ballots from under a table and counted them in the middle of the night,” Giuliani said at the time. “Luckily, there’s now a tape of it.”
Gray was the first to show the surveillance video that debunked those claims.
Now after two years, the state election board has voted to close the case saying definitively no fraud occurred.
