The Chinese Communist Party (CCP), not Russia, poses the biggest threat to election security leading up to November, said Attorney General William Barr.
In an interview on Wednesday night with CNN, Barr was asked about election security and who is the most assertive or aggressive nation.
I believe its China, Barr said. China more than Russia right now.
Asked about why he made that assessment, Barr said he has seen the intelligence suggesting the CCP is a greater threat than Moscow. Thats what I concluded, he added, saying that could not elaborate more on classified information.
But he stressed that he wouldnt be surprised if Russia or another foreign state actor tries to meddle in the election just as Russia and other adversaries did during the 2016 election.
Influence basically is two kinds of things. Its hack and dump. You get into someones mail system and then try to disclose embarrassing documents. It wouldnt surprise me if they try something like that, or any other country tries that. The other way is social media and putting things out on social media, the attorney general said.
In July, William Evanina, the director of the National Counterintelligence and Security Center (NCSC), which is under the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, found that China, Russia, and Iran are seeking to undermine the 2020 elections in the United States.
Evanina said the Chinese regime is on the top of its list, saying Beijing has ramped up its influence efforts to shape U.S. policy, pressure politicians, and tamp down criticism of the CCP.

I’m here to tell you man, nothing gets past Bill Barr.
I daresay he’s got it going on even more than The Silent Assassin his own self, Jeff Sessions.
They openly went to Clinton fundraisers back in the 90’s.
A lot of steam coming out of this windpipe...and yet he’s done diddley squat!! Trump is against the whole USA CABAL!! Very steep climb to overcome!! Help us lord!!
I don’t know man, that assassin bagged Realty Winner, not sure Bag Pipe boy is up to that level.
Obvious to anyone getting news from MSN propaganda systems.
China and yes, Russia, both want Biden to win. China wants the trade deals back and easy money from the US. Russia wants the US to impose the Green New Deal on itself so it can go back to selling its oil at inflated prices to Europe. They both want to see America’s nuclear weapons disarmed and military weakened. Biden and the Dems will do all of this and help China and Russia.
This is going to be a nightmare of an election between foreign interference, media lies, and voter fraud.
It’s the day after the election that I worry about.
And every day thereafter.
No matter who wins.
:)
Shhhh!
The ChiComs have paid well for the DNC and expect a return on their investment!
However Russia does not have the resources to bribe the Democrats and RINO’s like China does.
