Even before the FBI identified new cyber attacks on two separate state election boards, the Department of Homeland Security began considering declaring the election a "critical infrastructure," giving it the same control over security it has over Wall Street and and the electric power grid.
The latest admissions of attacks could speed up that effort possibly including the upcoming presidential election, according to officials.
"We should carefully consider whether our election system, our election process, is critical infrastructure like the financial sector, like the power grid," Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson said.
"There's a vital national interest in our election process, so I do think we need to consider whether it should be considered by my department and others critical infrastructure," he said at media conference earlier this month hosted by the Christian Science Monitor.

“All your votes are belong to us.”
Frankly, this is a declaration of war by the Federal Government against the citizens of the United STATES of America. This federal government is not God, nor does it have the right to subsume rights reserved to the STATES. It is war.
“Fox in the Henhouse” comes to mind.
Nothing like having the Executive branch in control of the election process.
BTW-What has Homeland Security really done for us?
They really do want a revolution.
Nope.
Having UberAfrican Jeh “laws is for whitey” Johnson in charge of all elections in the United States is a great idea.
Nothing at all could go wrong.
I agree.
They have no idea what trouble they will have unleashed should they do this.
it will be open season on democrats where they live
I’m sure the process to get into vote will be just as rigorous as getting into an airport... /s
“Nothing like having the Executive branch in control of the election process.”
You mean, nothing like having OBAMA in control of the election process.
This federal government - the one that REFUSES to name ISLAM as the primary foundation for the predominance of terrorism - thinks it can whore out Patriot Act BS they pick and choose from like a damned buffet Smörgåsbord to implement socialist and radical Islamic terror on us.
This government REFUSES to name black crimes against white people as Hate Crimes, it REFUSES to call wanton acts of murder and terror as Islamic Terrorism, it refuses to try to curb worldwide Islamic terror from Iran, Syria, and all the other Muslim Countries. We IMPORT them for cripes sake.
Now we are expected to believe Jeh’s (Obama’s) crap about ‘critical infrastructure’. If they want a war, they’ll damn well get one.
If they do this, things will go dark.
I liked what they did with the Brexit vote. Paper ballots and every ballot was accounted for BEFORE the first vote was counted. Looks like they learned from OUR mistakes.
Moslem Obama will allow criminal illegals TWO VOTES for
every American, and the military votes will be void, again.
Chicago,Chicago criminals from Daily to Barry.
“They have no idea what trouble they will have unleashed should they do this.”
Oh yes they do. The next action will be federalizing our local police forces.
I know they want to do this but that is the same kind of action - war, IMO. It is nothing more than Brown Shirted Thugism.
There is no further prove needed that ‘they’ know Clinton is going lose and lose badly.
