Justin Gray of WSB-TV in Atlanta received an email from Georgia-based attorney Lin Wood that said he’s been “domiciled in South Carolina for several months after purchasing property in the state in April”. . .
Lin Wood confirms to me that he has moved out of Georgia. He says it has nothing to do with GA bar investigating him. He plans to maintain his GA Bar license & eventually join the SC bar. Part of his email to me is below: pic.twitter.com/IBAGK4oxmZ

. . .and email has triggered an investigation by the Georgia Secretary of State to see if Wood, who claims the 2020 election was stolen from President Trump, voted illegally in the state:

According to Gray, it was that email Wood sent to him and his very own words that triggered the investigation in the first place:
