Representatives from Fulton County's election office directed inquiries to the county's external affairs office, which has not responded to requests for comment.
Fulton County, which includes Atlanta, supported Joe Biden in the 2020 election. Former President Trump has contested the election results, seeking to overturn them.
In August 2023, Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis secured an indictment against Trump and others, alleging attempts to overturn the 2020 election results. This case was dismissed in November due to concerns of impropriety related to Willis's conduct.
