Smith’s office interviewed Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger last month as part of the federal probe into Trump’s efforts to subvert the peaceful transition of power. Raffensperger, an elected Republican, repeatedly pushed back on Trump’s demands in 2020, as he and his family, in addition to other election workers in the state, faced an onslaught of threats. Harvey left his job at the secretary of state’s office about six months after the 2020 election. Separately, a grand jury in Fulton County is expected to consider state charges against Trump and his Republican allies for trying to overturn the 2020 election in Georgia. Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis, an elected Democrat, launched the investigation in early 2021, and has indicated that final charging decisions could come next month.

Tricia Raffensperger chastised Kelly Loeffler for endangering her life in 2020 for political gain. The wife of Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger slammed Loeffler in heated text messages. Loeffler called for Brad Raffensperger’s ouster to further Trump’s 2020 election denial scheme. "I hold you personally responsible for anything that happens to any of my family," Tricia Raffensperger wrote, adding, "You do not deserve to be in elected office." And that's all we did," Brad Raffensperger said.
When thousands of Georgia poll workers open their voting locations on Election Day, they will be equipped with a new tool designed to help protect them — a text alert system to report any threats at their polling places. Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger’s office created the incident reporting tool in response to threats made against state poll workers during and after the 2020 election. The new system comes after Georgia saw unprecedented threats to elections workers following the 2020 presidential election. Richard Barron, who ran Fulton County elections in 2020, told NBC News in April the threats his office received led to record turnover. Sterling said they have to strike a delicate balance between vigilance and not giving the possibility of threats too much attention.
