And guess who is running one of the investigations into RU tampering? Richard Burr, who got reelected in surprisingly close race.

FWIW, I think the most interesting state is STILL NC (and I live in MI, the closest Trump state), bc we know of RU tampering (investigation still ongoing) & worst GOP suppression.https://twitter.com/Susan_Hennessey/status/931560574550511616 …

Polling suggests outcome would have been same w/o RU and GOP tampering. But polling also reflects votes banked in early voting where suppression had huge impact.

All that said, NC is also notable bc in ever case where RU tampering might have affected outcome (and it'd take little to say it did in MI), it was always accompanied by at least some GOP suppression.

Just wondering, do you believe Russia "hacked" (don't think anybody knows exactly what that means at this point) the election? Thanks.

I don't believe it changed vote tallies. But I believe it did hack election related stuff.

Agree. Anecdotally, I registered voters in NC and can tell you- people were walking around spewing the worst kinds of anti-Clinton conspiracy theories. One man told me the Clintons had murdered many people.

Their “news” sources. Map shows why Trump had anti-immigrant rally in Loudoun Cty, VA in 10/‘16. Close to WV got big crowd+VA

Calling it a legitimate election is like calling an apple and orange.

what "tampering"? Legally spending money on ads is allowed. Maybe you should complain about the massive amount of tampering allowed by your own Supr Crt thru Citizens United..

I do find this extremely interesting (and terrifying) even if it doesn't seem to have flipped the electionhttp://time.com/4599886/detroit-voting-machine-failures-were-widespread-on-election-day/ …

@Susan_Hennessey Why would RU undertake such a project if it would have zero effect? Also, “If it’s what you say, i love it especially later in the summer.” We know someone thought the interference would be particularly effective later in the summer.Thanks.

I thought the whole point of Lawfare was to say Russians rigged the election.
