Judge Says Justice Department Can Keep The 2020 Election Ballots the FBI Seized from Fulton County, Ga. U.S. District Judge J.P. Boulee wrote in a 68-page order that there wasn’t enough evidence to prove the rights of county officials were “callously disregarded” — a legal standard in the case. He ruled that the county hadn’t demonstrated a need for the ballots or that it would be irreparably harmed without them. #Fascism #Trump2.0 #BlackMastodon https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/justice-department/judge-says-doj-can-keep-2020-ballots-seized-fulton-county-georgia-fbi-rcna343960
