Russia targeted Wisconsin's voter registration system ahead of the 2016 election

Another piece of the messed-up puzzle that was the 2016 U.S. presidential election fell into place today, as the Department of Homeland Security confirmed that "Russian government cyber actors" targeted the voter registration system of a key battleground state. 

While U.S. officials had already claimed that the Russian government went after 21 states' voter registration systems, this is the first time that names have been publicly named. And, sorry to say it Wisconsin, you have the dubious distinction of being the state in the spotlight.
