The U.S. official in charge of protecting American elections from hacking says the Russians successfully penetrated the voter registration rolls of several U.S. states prior to the 2016 presidential election.

In an exclusive interview with NBC News, Jeanette Manfra, the head of cybersecurity at the Department of Homeland Security, said she couldn't talk about classified information publicly, but in 2016, "We saw a targeting of 21 states and an exceptionally small number of them were actually successfully penetrated."

This will be an interesting one to follow.
 
Soooo...what are these several successfully-penetrated states, then?
 
This could be true.On election day the place where I voted at had a few guys with a Hillary sign as you walk in and they kept saying "nyet"
 
I believe it. We've had this coming for awhile.
