Russia's cyberattack on the U.S. electoral system before Donald Trump's election was far more widespread than has been publicly revealed, including incursions into voter databases and software systems in almost twice as many states as previously reported.
In Illinois, investigators found evidence that cyber intruders tried to delete or alter voter data. The hackers accessed software designed to be used by poll workers on Election Day, and in at least one state accessed a campaign finance database. Details of the wave of attacks, in the summer and fall of 2016, were provided by three people with direct knowledge of the U.S. investigation into the matter. In all, the Russian hackers hit systems in a total of 39 states, one of them said.
[...] The new details, buttressed by a classified National Security Agency document recently disclosed by The Intercept, show the scope of alleged hacking that federal investigators are scrutinizing as they look into whether Trump campaign officials may have colluded in the efforts. But they also paint a worrisome picture for future elections: The newest portrayal of potentially deep vulnerabilities in the U.S.'s patchwork of voting technologies comes less than a week after former FBI Director James Comey warned Congress that Moscow isn't done meddling.

Oh, we get it all right. You supported Trump because you are a fucking idiot.
Yep, you just proved how ignorant you are.

Not ignorant, just not a stupid American who wound up with the leadership you
didn'tget/got.I'm looking at your sour predicament from afar, my friend. Not far enough, but far.
Don't call me ignorant and an idiot-- YOU wound up with the leaders your parties picked... i can't help it if YOU wound up with choosing between an orange dust ball and a fucking criminal 'leader' who, when she lost to dustball, went off on long walks and drinking an ocean of wine leaving BERNIE SANDERS to pick up the real leadership of the party: doing the media interviews, going on tv, acting like a leader.
Everyone asked "where's Hillary": oh, yeah.... she's drunk and stumbling through the woods.
YOU aren't smart enough to see you got gipped: you SHOULD have had Bernie as a choice, and he probably would have won in my opinion. Instead, you got Trump and you got a leader who fucked Bernie over (fucked someone in her OWN PARTY) and would have fucked YOU over as well, just as easily.
I didn't vote for either of them, not being an American. Just because you are too stupid to see that you were fucked because Bernie was taken away from running (and hillary GOT AWAY WITH IT.... WTF AMERICA....WTF DID SHE GET AWAY WITH THAT???? FUCKING STUPID AMERICANS!!! (Not all Americans, though, just the stupid ones like you).
Hillary stole the leadership election from Bernie, then found out that American don't trust her and won't vote for her..... then she goes off crying and drinking and leaves THE GUY SHE FUCKED OVER to show true leadership and AMERICANS DID NOTHING! (And you wonder why anyone would vote for Trump over her?!?!?!)
Hope that Trump is impeached (probable) and that Bernie is apologized to and made leader of the DNC (possible? not american, so i don't know) and then he can win and reverse trumps dumps.
Don't call me ignorant and an idiot.... look in the mirror, American.
