Established Fact
Three CTCL-funded private groups — The Elections Group, the ACLU of Georgia, and the National Vote at Home Institute (NVAHI) — administered and controlled nearly all facets of the Fulton County 2020 General Election, hand-count/audit, candidate-requested recount, and Senate runoff elections without authorization, consent, or the knowledge of the Fulton County Board of Registration and Elections (FCBRE), the body vested with election superintendent authority under O.C.G.A. § 21-2-40. The Elections Group managed tabulator programming and L&A testing; ACLU volunteers were granted ENET voter registration system access; NVAHI provided advisory and operational support. The EOG Report (January 6, 2026) documents these findings across 26 counts of irregularities.
