Just when you thought it was safe to go back into the voting booth, suspicions emerge anew that Russian hackers are watching from the other side of the screen. Okay, so maybe not the other side of the screen, but a recent Fortune report suggests that the icy past that at least most of us have enjoyed with Russian interference might just be the gift that keeps on giving this election season. Even the Florida heat, it seems, can’t melt their cold, cold hearts.
Florida Senator Bill Nelson is warning that hackers have penetrated voter registration systems in multiple counties in his state, a development that looms large since he is seeking re-election this year. At this point, it’s uncertain exactly what actions the State of Florida will take to combat these new attacks, but the latest round of attacks seem unlikely to be limited to the Sunshine State.
