Lin Wood is under investigation by the State of Georgia for possible voter fraud. Wood is a conspiracy theory-promoting attorney whose outlandish claims of election fraud grew so unimaginable the Georgia Bar Association ordered him to be examined by a mental health expert. Wood filed several cases alleging election fraud in an apparent quest to prove Donald Trump won the November 2020 election, which he lost by a wide margin.
Atlanta’s WSB-TV reveals reporter Justin Gray “has learned that the state has launched an investigation into whether Wood himself was a legal Georgia voter.”
At issue is a statement Wood (photo, with Trump) himself made, announcing he had purchased property in another state last April and was living there.
“I have been domiciled in South Carolina for several months after purchasing property in the state in April,” Wood allegedly told WSB’s Gray in an email. That email began the investigation, WSB reports.
“Gray confirmed Tuesday that the Georgia Secretary of State’s Office has launched an investigation into whether Wood was eligible to vote in Georgia, whether he broke the law by casting his ballot and whether he was actually a Georgia resident,” WSB adds.
Georgia law does not allow for those who have moved and intend to live in another state to vote in Georgia elections, WSB says.
Wood has claimed Georgia’s Republican Governor and Secretary of State worked with China to rig the election against Donald Trump, and said, they “will soon be going to jail.”
Infamously, Wood also told Georgia voters to not vote in the November election, because, he alleged falsely, there were voting machine problems, CBS 46 reported in December.
On January 1 Wood – before his Twitter account was shut down, tweeted a prediction that “Vice President Mike Pence could ‘face execution by firing squad’ for ‘treason,'” The Daily Beast reported that day. Just five days later at the U.S. Capitol Trump’s MAGA supporters, with a gallows outside, hunted down the Vice President, chanting, “Kill Mike Pence.”
