Donna Brazile said in an interview Tuesday that Russian hackers destroyed critical data when they breached the Democratic National Committee (DNC) ahead of the 2016 presidential election.
Brazile, who served as interim DNC chair for a portion of last year, made the comments during an interview with Joe Madison on Sirius XM.
We had so much sh*t in our entire technology ecosystem that we couldnt clean it up. Oh man, [those] Russians were on us like white on rice. I mean, they were, Joe, they were destroying data, critical data, Joe, Brazile, who is promoting her new book Hacks, said. I have a walk-in list for precinct 89 in Washington, D.C. I know precinct 89, right? And the Russians had went in there and corrupted all of our critical data, Brazile said, referring to a voting precinct in the nations capital. All of our critical data. So, I no longer trusted this damn list that Ive had for over 20 years of knowing every frequent voter, every Democratic voter.
Brazile stepped in as chair of the DNC after Debbie Wasserman Schultz was forced to resign following the partys convention in July 2016 as a result of controversy stemming from the hacked emails released online.
We had to rebuild our entire system, Brazile said Tuesday. In two months.
And we werent even sure on Election Day if the data we were giving to people to do walks or calls, we were not even sure that it was clean, she added.

DB was told to amp up the Russian propaganda, so she made up that part.
Interestingly, if you look at the timeline, most of the “hacking” and publicized emails happened AFTER Crowdsource started “fixing” things.
A real IT crew would switch to the backups and send the “infected” unit to FBI when they asked for it. It’s hard to believe DB’s claim that sending the box to FBI would end the campaign because then they’d have no computer, no database.
Everything they do or say has to do with regaining power.
