Russians Have Penetrated Florida's Election Systems

Russian Operatives have penetrated some of Florida's Election Systems and could Delete Registered Voters ahead of the November Elections if the Systems are not adequately Protected, said Florida U.S. Senator Bill Nelson. "They have already penetrated certain counties in the state and they now have free rein to move about,".

Democrat Senator Nelson and Republican Senator Marco Rubio of Florida wrote a Letter last Month to the State's 67 County Election Supervisors about potential Threats, but lacked the Specificity Nelson has now laid out.

"We were requested by the chairman and vice chairman of the (Senate) Intelligence Committee to let supervisors of Elections in Florida know that the Russians are in their records," Nelson said.

But the State Department that oversees Elections pushed back against Nelson's Comments, saying it received "zero information" from Nelson, federal or state agencies to support the infiltration claim. "If Senator Nelson has specific information about threats to our elections, he should share it with election officials in Florida,” said Sarah Revell, Spokeswoman for the Florida Department of State, adding that State and Local Officials received Funding to Strengthen the Security of Election Systems. Florida Lawmakers Approved the use of a $19 Million Federal Grant to improve Election Security,

"This is no fooling time and that's why two senators, bipartisan, reached out to the election apparatus of Florida to let them know the Russians are in your records and all they have to do, if those election records are not protected, is to go in and start eliminating registered voters," Nelson said. "You can imagine the chaos that would occur on Election Day when the voters get to the polls" and Discover they are No Longer Registered, he said.

U.S. Intelligence Agencies have concluded that Russian Operatives targeted the 2016 Presidential Race with a Hacking and Disinformation Campaign to try to Tilt the Election in President Trump's favor. They said they found No Evidence Vote Tallies were Changed. U.S. Intelligence Officials have said Russian Election Interference Efforts are continuing and now Target the Nov. 6th Elections.
