There has been another leak of U.S. Democratic Party data [thehill.com], this time including the personal phone numbers and email addresses of House Democrats. Memos and opposition research were also included:

The hacker known as Guccifer 2.0 dumped the personal contact info of House Democrats on his website Friday, part of the latest batch of documents from a widespread breach of Democratic groups.

The document was obtained from the cyberattack on the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC). The hacker also published DCCC shared passwords to several online databases and news networks.
