An official from the Georgia Secretary of State's Office told ABC affiliate WSB-TV on Sunday that the FBI was seeking information regarding a woman named Rachel Small as part of their probe of an alleged hacking attempt into the state's voter registration system.

"After a failed attempt to hack the state's voter registration system, the Secretary of State's office opened an investigation into the Democratic Party of Georgia on the evening of Saturday, November 3, 2018," the secretary's office said in a statement.

We opened an investigation into the Democratic Party of Georgia after receiving information from our legal team about failed efforts to breach the online voter registration system and My Voter Page.

"While we cannot comment on the specifics of an ongoing investigation, I can confirm that the Democratic Party of Georgia is under investigation for possible cyber crimes," Candice Broce, press secretary for Kemp at the Secretary of State's Office, said in a statement.

The Democratic Party of Georgia ridiculed the Kemp campaign in response: "BREAKING: Team Kemp is losing their minds.

Rachel Small is a volunteer for the Democratic Party of Georgia on our voter protection hotline.
