"You would think that the Democrats would have learned from the Clinton Impeachment that the people do not support such nonsense. The Democrats have done nothing to help the country. All they have done is obstruct everything possible and have become pro-impeachment radicals who do nothing, but are paid not to do a job.

I just find it absurd that they want to try to impeach Trump for some linkage of aid to insisting that Ukraine investigate if Biden and his son did anything illegal. Joe Biden himself admitted publicly that he withheld aid unless the Ukrainian government fired the prosecutor who was investigating his son and the company that hired him to gain precisely that level of influence in Washington."

Official: Russian-owned company attempted Ohio election hack
November 27, 2019

. Ohio detected and thwarted an election-related cyber attack earlier this month, the state's elections chief said. LaRose said the “relatively unsophisticated” hacking attempt on Nov. 5, 2019, originated in Panama but was traced to a Russian-owned company. LaRose told The Columbus Dispatch Tuesday, Nov. 26 that the would-be attackers were looking around for vulnerabilities in his office's website.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Ohio detected and thwarted an election-related cyber attack earlier this month, the state’s elections chief said.

Republican Secretary of State Frank LaRose said the “relatively unsophisticated” hacking attempt on Nov. 5, which was Election Day, originated in Panama but was traced to a Russian-owned company.

LaRose told The Columbus Dispatch Tuesday that the would-be attackers were looking around for vulnerabilities in his office’s website.

“They are poking around for soft spots,” LaRose said.

The ultimate goal of such attacks is disrupting and undermining the credibility of elections, but LaRose said Ohio’s election results are safe because neither the election machines nor the ballot counters the state uses are connected to the internet.

LaRose said the attempted SQL injection attack sought to insert malicious code into his office’s website. It was detected by the state’s Albert network security system, a sort of digital burglar alarm.

“The good guys won that day and the bad guys lost,” he said.
