Context
In Georgia, a federal judge rejected the U.S. Department of Justice's effort to obtain the names of 2020 Fulton County election workers.
The ruling puts those workers' protection and willingness to participate in election administration alongside the DOJ's access to information for an investigation. Allowing the request could preserve an investigative step, while blocking it could shield election workers from harassment and a chilling effect on participation.
The ruling leaves the Justice Department's request blocked.
