Georgia Officials Knew Election System Was Vulnerable

“Georgia election officials got a friendly warning in August 2016 that their electronic voting system could be easily breached. But less than a month before the November election, a state cybersecurity official fretted that ‘critical vulnerabilities’ persisted,” internal emails obtained by McClatchy show.

“The emails… offer a glimpse into a Georgia election security team that appeared to be outmatched even as evidence grew that Russian operatives were seeking to penetrate state and county election systems across the country.”
