What's in the election security documents that Trump released on Thursday?
President Trump claimed China compromised U.S. election data by obtaining 220 million voter files, but released documents do not support his assertions of manipulated infrastructure or altered election outcomes. The documents suggest adversaries may have the capacity to influence elections but lack evidence of actual manipulation in the U.S. Experts note the voter data was commercially available and not inherently nefarious.
