The article you've linked doesn't say any votes were changed, and I haven't seen any evidence that they were changed.

That said, we aren't taking that future threat seriously enough. I think it's more likely voters would be deleted from voter rolls.

I'm not trying to get all tin-foil hat conspiracy theory here or even necessarily suggest that it happened but I'm VERY skeptical that the government would tell us if votes had been changed by hackers, Russian or otherwise. Can you imagine if that was announced? If there was evidence of it occurring in one city why couldn't it happen elsewhere? How could we as citizens trust the outcomes of anything on that ballot?

That's true. Also, given that we know the Russians got into the voter databases and how easily we've heard it is to hack some of the voter machines, they could have done it without us being aware of it.

You'd think our elected officials would do something to help secure the integrity and faith in the vote. But they don't.
