Top Dem rejects Russian cyber partnership: We might as well mail our ballot boxes to Moscow

Top Dem rejects Russian cyber partnership: ‘We might as well mail our ballot boxes to Moscow’
BY JULIA MANCHESTER - 07/09/17 09:42 AM EDT

Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) blasted President Trump's idea of working together with Russia on election hacking, saying if that were to happen, “we might as well mail our ballot boxes to Moscow.”

“I don’t think we can expect the Russians to be any kind of credible partner in some cyber security unit. I think that would be dangerously naive for this country. If that’s our best election defense, we might as well just mail our ballot boxes to Moscow,” Schiff told CNN’s Dana Bash on “State of the Union.”
