A newly released video shows a fake Trump voter in Georgia letting data extraction experts linked to Donald Trump into an election office on the day the office’s election systems were hacked, according to CNN. Cathy Latham, who was working as an election supervisor in Coffee County during the 2020 election, was filmed allowing at least two men working with the data firm SullivanStricker, whose visit was coordinated by Latham and former Trump lawyer Sidney Powell. According to CNN, the two men in the video Latham left, Scott Hall and Paul Maggio, confirmed in court documents that they were able to extract at least half a terabyte of data from Dominion Voting Systems machines at the office. Latham was among 16 GOP officials in Georgia who rejected the voters’ choice of then-presidential candidate Joe Biden and instead cast a statewide primary in favor of Trump in a closed-door meeting on December 14, 2020. She was also the chair of the Coffee County Republican Party at the time. According to the New York Times, this new video also shows that Doug Logan — CEO of Cyber Ninjas, a company that gained notoriety for its random audit of Maricopa County, Arizona — was one of the consultants who filed in the Coffee County office in January 2021. After the election, the Fulton County District Attorney launched a criminal investigation into election officials who tampered with election data, and Latham’s actions have become a focal point of the investigation. Trump and several allies, including Rudy Giuliani and Sen. Lindsey Graham, have also been embroiled in an investigation into whether state election laws were violated. According to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Latham had denied in May that she had allowed agents in and that they had extracted data. “This is bull hockey. If this had happened, it would have been all over town,” Latham said. According to the AJC, at least four visits between the data firm and Latham were coordinated. Meanwhile, the Washington Post reported last month that the Georgia Bureau of Investigation is also investigating how a data company linked to former Trump lawyer Powell had created copies of data from Dominion voting machines in Coffee County. It is unclear at this time whether Powell’s associates who visited the Coffee County or Logan office had made copies of data. “While Mrs. Latham does not pretend to remember the details of everything that happened on that date more than a year and a half ago, she does remember going to the Elections Office after school on January 7, 2021 to check on some voter review boards from the second round of the election and truthfully testified to these facts,” Robert Chili, her attorney, told the Washington Post. Cheeley also claimed that his client “will not be involved and has not knowingly been involved in any impropriety in any election.” Latham did not immediately respond to Insider’s request for comment. The Fulton County DA did not immediately comment.
