Internal emails from Fulton County election workers obtained by Just the News are heightening the mystery surrounding ballot-processing in Georgia's largest county during last November's presidential contest.
Uncertainty arose regarding the ballot processing operation at Fulton County's State Farm Arena on and after Election Night, when ballot-scanning apparently continued even after most election workers had reportedly been sent home.
Two separate sworn affidavits from Election Night poll workers claimed that, at roughly 10:30 p.m. on Nov. 3, an official directed workers to stop working and to return the next day at 8:30 a.m. Nearly half a dozen local and national media outlets reported being told that absentee ballot-counting had ceased at around 10:30 p.m. and would resume the next day.
Reached for comment via email, Waller said the email "Was in response to a question received asking when all workers would return." She did not respond to a request to see the original email to which she was responding.
The county worker did not respond to requests for comment.
One, from Georgia Republican Party Field Organizer Michelle Branton, claimed that, at around 10:30 p.m., "a woman yelled to everyone to stop working and to return the next day at 8:30 a.m." "Nearly all of the staff workers" departed the arena after that directive, Branton stated, leaving only a small number of workers behind, one of whom was Regina Waller.
Another Georgia Republican Party ballot watcher, Mitchell Harrison, said in his own sworn testimony that he worked alongside Branton that night and also witnessed the woman dismiss workers "Sometime after 10 o'clock," after which "All but 4 election employees" left the arena.
