As the 2024 presidential election draws nearer, election integrity remains a hot-button issue. A Texas-based right-wing group, True the Vote, asserted it can prove widespread voter fraud in Georgia’s 2020 presidential election. However, recent court documents filed in Fulton County, Georgia, reveal the group admitted it cannot produce evidence of such fraud.
True the Vote (TTV) claimed President Joe Biden’s victory in the 2020 election was a result of widespread voter fraud and coordinated efforts to stuff ballot boxes in Atlanta.

The group said it had obtained a detailed account of coordinated efforts to collect and deposit ballots in drop boxes across metro Atlanta during both the 2020 presidential election and the January 2021 Senate runoff election.
Despite requests from law enforcement, the group would not provide its supposed proof to investigators. In response, a district judge ordered True the Vote to produce the evidence including recordings, transcripts and witness statements, along with proof of ballot harvesting and ballot trafficking.
The group’s lawyers submitted documents repeatedly stating it “does not have in its possession custody or control such identity and contact information” and that “TTV does not retain such records.”
“Once again, True the Vote has proven itself untrustworthy and unable to provide a shred of evidence for a single one of their fairy-tale allegations,” a spokesperson for Georgia’s Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger said. “Like all the lies about Georgia’s 2020 election, their fabricated claims of ballot harvesting have been repeatedly debunked.”
True the Vote dismissed media coverage of its court filings as “fake news” on its website, and said every ounce of evidence it gave the Georgia Bureau of Investigation related to the 2020 general election “cannot be understood to be like records stored somewhere.”
The organization said the evidence “consisted of massive quantities of electronic data that could only be appreciated and understood when you had multiple servers processing it and visually displaying how the information intersected in real-time. This is called geospatial analysis.”
True the Vote claims the state was unwilling to provide whistleblower protection in 2021 and unwilling to examine the data while it was still set up in active databases.
The group claims Georgia investigators could have gotten a warrant to investigate the data and that there’s nothing from stopping the agency from doing that now, over three years later.
At this time, it’s unclear if the attorney general will further pursue this case, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

AS WE MOVE CLOSER TO THE 2024 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION –
THE DEBATE OVER ELECTION INTEGRITY CONTINUES TO BE A HOT-BUTTON ISSUE.
ONE RIGHT-WING GROUP OUT OF TEXAS CALLED “TRUE THE VOTE” – HAD BEEN CLAIMING IT CAN PROVE WIDESPREAD VOTER FRAUD IN GEORGIA’S 2020 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.
HOWEVER – IN NEW COURT DOCUMENTS FILED IN FULTON COUNTY GEORGIA REVEAL — THE GROUP ADMITTED IT CAN’T ACTUALLY PRODUCE EVIDENCE OF THAT FRAUD.
AFTER PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN WON THE 2020 ELECTION – “TRUE THE VOTE” CLAIMED BIDEN WON – ONLY BECAUSE OF WIDESPREAD VOTER FRAUD AND COORDINATED EFFORTS TO STUFF BALLOT BOXES IN ATLANTA.
THE GROUP SAID IT HAD OBTAINED “A DETAILED ACCOUNT OF COORDINATED EFFORTS TO COLLECT AND DEPOSIT BALLOTS IN DROP BOXES ACROSS METRO ATLANTA” DURING BOTH THE 2020 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION AND THE JANUARY 2021 SENATE ELECTION RUNOFF.
THE GROUP WOULDN’T PROVIDE ITS SUPPOSED PROOF TO INVESTIGATORS…
SO, A DISTRICT JUDGE ORDERED TRUE THE VOTE TO PRODUCE THE EVIDENCE – INCLUDING RECORDINGS, TRANSCRIPTS, AND WITNESSES STATEMENTS – AS WELL AS PROOF OF BALLOT HARVESTING AND BALLOT TRAFFICKING.
THE GROUP’S LAWYERS SUBMITTED DOCUMENTS REPEATEDLY STATING IT “DOES NOT HAVE IN ITS POSSESSION, CUSTODY, OR CONTROL SUCH IDENTITY AND CONTACT INFORMATION” … AND THAT “TTV DOES NOT RETAIN SUCH RECORDS IN ITS POSSESSION, CUSTODY, OR CONTROL.”
A SPOKESPERSON FOR GEORGIA SECRETARY OF STATE BRAD RAFFENSPERGER SAID “ONCE AGAIN, TRUE THE VOTE HAS PROVEN ITSELF UNTRUSTWORTHY AND UNABLE TO PROVIDE A SHRED OF EVIDENCE FOR A SINGLE ONE OF THEIR FAIRY-TALE ALLEGATIONS. LIKE ALL THE LIES ABOUT GEORGIA’S 2020 ELECTION, THEIR FABRICATED CLAIMS OF BALLOT HARVESTING HAVE BEEN REPEATEDLY DEBUNKED.”
ON ITS WEBSITE – TRUE THE VOTE SAYS EVERY ARTICLE WRITTEN ABOUT ITS COURT FILING IS “FAKE NEWS” AND THAT EVERY OUNCE OF EVIDENCE IT GAVE THE GEORGIA BUREAU OF INVESTIGATION – RELATED TO THE 2020 GENERAL ELECTION – “CANNOT BE UNDERSTOOD TO BE LIKE RECORDS STORED SOMEWHERE.”
THE ORGANIZATION SAYS THE EVIDENCE “CONSISTED OF MASSIVE QUANTITIES OF ELECTRONIC DATA THAT COULD ONLY BE APPRECIATED AND UNDERSTOOD WHEN YOU HAD MULTIPLE SERVERS PROCESSING IT AND VISUALLY DISPLAYING HOW THE INFORMATION INTERSECTED IN REAL-TIME. THIS IS CALLED GEOSPATIAL ANALYSIS.”
THE GROUP CLAIMS THE STATE WAS UNWILLING TO PROVIDE WHISTLEBLOWER PROTECTION IN 2021 AND UNWILLING TO EXAMINE THE DATA WHILE IT WAS STILL SET UP IN ACTIVE DATABASES.
TRUE THE VOTE CLAIMS THE GEORGIA INVESTIGATORS COULD’VE GOTTEN A WARRANT TO INVESTIGATE THE DATA – AND THAT THERE’S NOTHING FROM STOPPING THE AGENCY FROM DOING THAT — EVEN NOW, MORE THAN THREE YEARS LATER SAYING, “ONLY LAW ENFORCEMENT CAN DEANONYMIZE” THE GEOSPATIAL ANALYSIS OF DATA.
ACCORDING TO THE ATLANTA JOURNAL-CONSTITUTION – IT’S UNCLEAR AT THIS TIME IF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL WILL FURTHER PURSUE THIS CASE.
