A fake video showing voter fraud in Georgia was created by Russian disinformation agents, U.S. intelligence officers said this week.
On Friday, U.S. intelligence officials said that «Russian influence actors» created the video which falsely depicts voter fraud as an attempt to undermine confidence in the integrity of next week’s presidential election.The announcement that the video was fake marked a proactive effort by the FBI and other federal agencies—just four days ahead of Tuesday’s election—to counter foreign disinformation by addressing it directly rather than allowing it to circulate unchecked.
This follows a similar statement last week attributing another widely shared video, which falsely showed mail-in ballots for former President Donald Trump being destroyed in Pennsylvania, to Russian actors.What Did the Video Show
The 20-second video, which began circulating on the social media platform X (formerly Twitter) on Thursday afternoon, shows a man identifying himself as a Haitian immigrant claiming he plans to vote multiple times in two Georgia counties for Vice President Kamala Harris.
