This Jan. 7, 2021, image taken from a Coffee County, Ga., security video, appears to show Republican official Cathy Latham, center with white hair, introducing local election officials to a computer forensic team hired by an ally of former President Donald Trump.
WASHINGTON—A former Republican Party official helped a computer forensics firm inspect voting equipment in Georgia and then made misleading statements under oath about her role in the episode, voting-rights activists alleged in a new court filing.
The court filing, which includes time-stamped screenshots of surveillance footage, describes what happened inside the Coffee County elections office on Jan. 7, 2021, an episode that is being investigated by law-enforcement agencies in the state.
