Russia and Iran are using ‘voter registration’ data to interfere in 2020 election, U.S. officials say

Russia and Iran have obtained “voter registration information” on American citizens and are using it in their separate schemes to influence next month’s presidential election, the Trump administration’s top intelligence official said Wednesday. In a hastily arranged press conference at Justice Department headquarters in Washington, John Ratcliffe, the director of the Office of National Intelligence, said the two countries are using the data to target individual voters with “false information” to “cause confusion, sow chaos and undermine your confidence in American democracy" with just two weeks to go until Election Day.
