Russian hackers used malware to mess with the 2014 Ukrainian election

a major cyberattack covered by the *Wall Street Journal*, among many other
mainstream sources.

Paul Manafort, dismissed from the Trump campaign when his deep financial
ties to Russian interests emerged

, *returned to the campaign on an informal basis late in the game*
<https://twitter.com/maggieNYT/status/803411682261405696>*. *Manafort advised
Trump, for reasons not yet clear, to focus his efforts on Wisconsin and
Michigan.

There is reason to believe Trump aide Carter Page set up an illegal
backchannel with the Russians during the campaign and discussed the
possibility of lifting economic sanctions against them. The source on this
is CNBC.

there are troubling statistical anomalies in the vote totals

are causing experts to put their careers on the line and raise the alert.
To give just one example, the anomalies in Wisconsin are so striking that
they led Walter R. Mebane, Jr., a professor of political science and
professor of statistics at the University of Michigan to write in the

*Washington Post*

patterns in Wisconsin.”

Similarly ominous anomalies show up in the Michigan results
<https://medium.com/@mslovett/a-case-for-recounts-18ef46977907#.xrjsjs9ym>,
where Trump lost traditional Republican strongholds but somehow pulled out
victories in counties that would seem, to rational observers, to have had
