“The Russian government directed extensive activity, beginning in at least 2014 and carrying into at least 2017, against US election infrastructure at the state and local level,” the report said.
The 67-page, partially redacted document outlines recommendations that are the result of the panel’s two-and-a-half year probe examining the Kremlin’s meddling in the 2016 presidential election.
The committee’s probe was led by the panel’s GOP chairman Richard Burr of North Carolina and Democratic vice chair Mark Warner of Virginia.
The report recommended that Congress provide more money for states to secure elections once the $380 million appropriated for the states in 2018 was spent.
But the committee also found no evidence that any votes were changed or voting machines manipulated.

I would venture to say that not one single Trump voter was swayed, in any way, by Russia, MSNBC or the Clinton Clown Network.
Former U.S. officials who worked on Russia policy with Clinton say that Putin was personally stung by Clinton’s December 2011 condemnation of Russia’s parliamentary elections, and had his anger communicated directly to President Barack Obama. They say Putin and his advisers are also keenly aware that, even as she executed Obama’s “reset” policy with Russia, Clinton took a harder line toward Moscow than others in the administration. And they say Putin sees Clinton as a forceful proponent of “regime change” policies that the Russian leader considers a grave threat to his own survival.

We've all known for a long time that votes were not manipulated. However, Russia engaged in a massive propaganda campaign full of disinformation to help Trump win. Many of their lies still exist in conservative circles today. 126 million Facebook users were exposed to the propaganda disguised as regular U.S. citizens and organizations. Russia also arranged for Hillary Clinton's emails to be released through Wikileaks!
Did you listen to Mueller during the hearing? He flat-out stated that Russia interfered in the election to help Donald Trump!
