New reports of foreign election interference emerged this week when
national security officials announced that Iran and Russia obtained
voter registration data that could be used to threaten voters and
sow discord ahead of the November election. In an advisory
Thursday, the Department of Homeland Security further called out
Iranian actors for spoofing legitimate media sites to spread
misinformation about voter suppression and ballot fraud. But
according to The New York Times, security experts say that Russia
remains the more dangerous threat to the integrity of the 2020
election. We'll talk to New York Times national security
correspondent David Sanger about foreign attempts to influence this
November's vote.
