What is Dirty Tricks in the Digital Age : cybersecurity and election interference about?

How American elections are increasingly vulnerable-and what must be done to protect them Until recently, most Americans could assume that elections, at all levels of government, were reasonably clean and well managed-most of the time. Yes, there were exceptions: some states and localities were notorious for occasional election-rigging, losers often complained that winners somehow had unfair advantages, and money increasingly distorted the electoral process. But even when voters did not like the results, the overall system of elections did not seem nearly as corrupt or warped as in many other countries. That positive view of American politics now seems outdated, even naïve.
