Do you think Russia was just looking around @ our voting systems or did they screw w/it?

Was it just a look see or did they effect the outcome(s*)?


* Russ Feingold was @ >90% chance of winning his race for the senate.

...billionaire and his data mining company that fed the necessary electoral data to hackers to enable their pin-point targeting.
