WASHINGTON (AP) 鈥� A video that purports to show election fraud in Georgia by a man who claims to be from Haiti is fake and the work of 鈥淩ussian influence actors,鈥� U.S. intelligence officials said Friday.
The video in question shows someone claiming to be a Haitian immigrant talking about how he鈥檚 intending to vote multiple times in two Georgia counties for Vice President Kamala Harris.
Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger said Thursday night that the video is 鈥渙bviously fake,鈥� and likely the product of Russian trolls 鈥渁ttempting to sow discord and chaos on the eve of the election."
Intelligence officials echoed that finding Friday, saying the video was manufactured by 鈥淩ussian influence actors鈥� and was part of 鈥淢oscow鈥檚 broader effort to raise unfounded questions about the integrity of the U.S. election and stoke divisions among Americans.鈥�
