Sen. Coons "concerned" with WH's lack of visible response to election threats
A senator from former Vice President Joe Biden's home state of Delaware is calling on the White House to be more proactive in efforts to secure the upcoming election.
Democratic Senator Chris Coons said on CBSN Friday that he was not hearing "as much as [he] would like to" from the Trump administration after warnings from Microsoft about foreign-backed cyber attacks targeting the campaigns.
"I've been concerned with the lack of a visible, public, coordinated response from the senior levels of the Trump administration," he told anchor Lana Zak.
Microsoft revealed Thursday that groups backed by Russia, China and Iran have launched attacks against the Trump and Biden campaigns, as well as other people and groups involved in the race. The company's corporate vice president of customer security and trust said in a blog post that the efforts signal that hostile foreign groups "have stepped up their efforts targeting the 2020 election."
