Attorney Sidney Powell filed her “Biblical” lawsuit on Wednesday in Georgia, making good on her promise to “release the Kraken.” The defendants were named as Governor Brian Kemp, Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, and State Election Board members David Worley, Rebecca Sullivan, Matthew Mashburn, and Anh Le. The lawsuit called into question around 146,600 votes at minimum.
The 104-page lawsuit claimed that Dominion Voting Systems (Dominion) engaged in virtual ballot-stuffing through its electronic voting software. It bolstered its claim by alleging that the software design was created to manipulate the Venezuelan elections of Hugo Chavez, and was designed in a way to hide vote manipulations from any audits.
Additionally, the lawsuit claimed that Raffensperger unconstitutionally modified election law through a consent decree issued earlier this year, that thousands of absentee ballots were requested and counted but never recorded as being returned, that workers never administered proper signature checks for absentee ballots, and that challengers were barred from observing the count.
The suit referenced testimonies from elections and software security experts, poll worker witnesses, and a previous affiliate of Hugo Chavez. The evidence focused on specific incidents of uncounted or overlooked ballots, as well as the voting irregularities that occurred on election night. Most significantly, the lawsuit focused on Dominion’s background, vulnerabilities, and irregularities presented in the election.
Powell tweeted the link to the lawsuit late Wednesday night, hinting at an upcoming lawsuit to be filed in Michigan.
“The #Kraken was just released on #Georgia. Complaint being uploaded at DefendingTheRepublic.Org. Exhibits to follow. Also #ReleaseTheKraken in #Michigan @realDonaldTrump @jbinnall @GenFlynn @molmccann @abigailcfrye @jbinnall @Scavino45 @marklevinshow @MariaBartiromo”
The day before, Powell appeared on Fox Business to share that she would file the lawsuit in Georgia no later than Wednesday. The defendants would be “those who are responsible for making sure elections are done properly” in Georgia, alluding to Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger and his office. She added that her team plans on filing lawsuits in other states, as well.
She also claimed voting systems companies masked their connections to Venezuela through shell companies.
Powell also issued an open records request to Raffensperger regarding his conduct in organizing and executing the vote recounts.
“Dear @GaSecofState [:] Please consider this an open records act request for the #Zoom meeting of today’s date with electors & your refusal to perform a real audit to include envelopes & all documents required. #TrumpLandslide @realDonaldTrump @GenFlynn @abigailcfrye @LLinWood #GA”
Attorney Lin Wood was one of the first to share that Powell would file suit on Wednesday.
“I have worked closely with @SidneyPowell1 & others over recent weeks. The lawsuit Sidney will be filing tomorrow in GA speaks TRUTH. Enemies of America will deny its allegations. Do NOT believe them. Believe Sidney & me. We love America & freedom. Our enemies do not.”

Wood attached a picture of himself that ascribed President Donald Trump as a “truth-giver,” and instructing his followers to “listen carefully” and to pray for the country and Trump.
Later, Wood shared that he’d filed an emergency motion in the Eleventh District Court. Last week, a lower court judge dismissed the case, citing Wood’s lack of standing.
The court granted the hearing. It also responded with several questions for Wood concerning whether the previous ruling in the lower court was immediately appealable or moot. Wood has until December 1st to file a response.
Although the Trump Campaign announced that Powell wasn’t a part of their legal team, President Trump has shared articles concerning Powell’s work on uncovering election fraud.
Wednesday also marked President Donald Trump’s pardoning of General Michael Flynn. Powell, the defense attorney on Flynn’s case, retweeted a statement from the Flynn family.
