Ossoff calls FBI raid in Atlanta 'sore loser's crusade.' What we know

Investigators with the Federal Bureau of Investigations raided an elections facility in Atlanta Wednesday in a supposed search for materials related to the 2020 election.

The Fulton County Election Hub, located in Union City just south of Atlanta, has been at the center of election denial claims and part of a sweeping indictment of President Trump and others that was ultimately dropped.

Georgia lawmakers respond to raid

U.S. Senator Jon Ossoff, a Democrat hoping to keep his seat in the midterm elections in November, responded to news of the raid on X.

"After losing Georgia in 2020, Donald Trump demanded state officials 'find' votes to change the outcome, tried to use DOJ to overturn it, and spread conspiracy theories that led to the Jan. 6 sacking of the U.S. Capitol," he said in a statement. "I suspect today's raid is a continuation of this sore loser's crusade, despite repeated audits and independent reviews confirming that Donald Trump was indeed defeated."

with rigging and voter suppression, this is essentially Atlanta the stronghold

of Democratic resistance to Trump.
