God, this is just laughable. The Russians hacked into Chicago election machines. To what end? To make sure Chicago didn’t go for Trump? Of course Chicago jumps to his feet to thank the doj for making sure elections are okay. What a farce.

[pepsionice]

Man, you think that the Russians might have a voting listing and an address list, and might be establishing that half the folks listed....are either dead or illegally on the list? This was supposed to be top secret.

Previous FR threads in the last year noted the NSA had hacking tools that would leave digital finger prints of another entity to take the blame.

Then this tools was hacked or intentional given to a foreign state.

As a side note to this thread, please consider this.

I’m not cyberspace security expert, but keep in mind that hackers in all countries are probably hacking 24/7.

[Bonemaker]

“The indictment states that hackers obtained private information on about 500,000 voters in the cyber attack, including names, dates of birth and partial Social Security numbers.”

Hell that was just Chicago doing routine election fixing not the Russians.

[SERKIT]

Crook County likely wanted to make sure it could still count ballots from Russian-American, yet dead, voters.

[Deaf Smith]

Remember also that the Fed's were caught hacking the Georgia? election offices. Said they were just checking integrity.

Then Chicago...*Better cover our tracks this time.

[Daaave]

Probably Obama administration Department Homeland Security.

Georgia election officials accuses DHS of hacking state computer system washingtontimes.com

[Revel]

Some of the states said that the IP addresses of the hackers came back to DHS. It is so hard to believe that was true after we see what Obama’s justice system was capable of.

Too bad for the Russians, the cemetery voters have hacked the Cook county elections for over a hundred years. The newcomers are amateurs by comparison.

[FlingWingFlyer]

How in the heck would Chicago know if there was some “funny business” going on in their elections?

[Ann Archy]

Look in the CEMETERIES!

[oldbill]

Just check the Chicago cemetery records.

[Major Matt Mason]

What a coincidence that IL is the state that was "hacked". Seems like that state is always in the middle of some shenanigans, especially during the Obama years and immediately after.

[HarleyD]

This is surprising since Hillary won Illinois. Perhaps the Russians were in collusion with Hillary?

[Amendment10]

”… with hacking into a state’s elections board website [??? emphasis added] ..."

Patriots are reminded that there is more than one way to hack an election.

Hacking Democracy - The Hack

We really to get rid of the ill-conceived 17th Amendment.

The 16th Amendment can disappear too.

[Does so]

With a deal, Trump could come back from Russia with interesting transcripts. :)
