Cuomo: NY to Review Voting Security After Hacking Reports
New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo has ordered a review of the cybersecurity of the state’s election system following reports of Russian attempts to hack into American voting systems.
Cuomo said Tuesday that while there have been no “credible reports” of election hacking in New York, it’s imperative that the state do everything it can to protect the integrity of the election system.
