ATLANTA, Ga. (Atlanta News First) – Georgia’s top election official says a video showing a “Haitian immigrant with multiple IDs from Georgia claiming to have voted multiple times” is considered interference foreign

“This is false and is the most targeted misinformation we’ve seen this election,” said Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger. “It is probably foreign interference trying to sow discord and chaos on the eve of the election.”

Raffensperger said his office is working with state and federal partners to determine the source of the video.

“In the meantime, we’re asking Elon Musk and the leadership of other social media platforms to take this down. This is patently false and part of a disinformation effort. It’s probably a production of Russian troll farms,” ​​Raffensperger said. “As Americans, we cannot let our enemies use lies to divide us and undermine our faith in our institutions — or in each other.”

The fake video comes one day before the last day of early voting in the Peach State ahead of Election Day on November 5.
