Some of the most eye-opening testimony came from former U.S. Senator David Perdue. In 103 pages, he described handing Georgia Bureau of Investigation (GBI) Director Vic Reynolds a packet of evidence in May 2021 that Reynolds himself called "compelling” enough to investigate. The materials — "Video evidence and cell phone evidence, along with testimony and bank records that are corroborated,” as Perdue characterized it — had been compiled by True the Vote.
The group’s ballot-trafficking investigation had been highly controversial, drawing sharp criticism from some election officials and media outlets. Nevertheless, Perdue testified under oath that Reynolds initially viewed the evidence as compelling enough to warrant a full investigation. Perdue also pushed back during the session when prosecutor Nathan Wade questioned him about prior probes that had purportedly cleared the matter, replying that those investigations were "not to my satisfaction.”
Six months later, in November 2021, Reynolds called Perdue back. According to Perdue’s sworn account, Reynolds first told him "the governor wants me to tell you why we’re not going to investigate,” then delivered the blunt political rationale: "We’re not going to investigate because … I’m a team player. If the governor doesn’t want to investigate, we’re not going to investigate.”
Perdue also noted on the record that Reynolds received a promotion to Superior Court Judge of Cobb County shortly after the grand-jury session — a move that made election watchdogs suspicious and fueled a broader pattern of concern among conservative observers. The transcripts don’t prove motive, but they do make the timeline impossible to ignore.
At the time, both Kemp and Raffensperger were rumored to have political considerations of their own. Raffensperger’s gubernatorial aspirations were well-known to his close supporters in 2018 before he was even elected as secretary of state, and he is currently a candidate for the office. Meanwhile, Gov. Kemp, a former two-term secretary of state himself, was and still is rumored to be considering a campaign for president in 2028. Critics claim they, and their lieutenants, were more concerned with protecting their political legacies and future aspirations than they were with protecting the integrity of our elections.
