Russian hackers successfully tapped into the voter registration files of two Florida counties in 2016
requested the FBI briefing of the Florida delegation, called the news about the two counties "disturbing."
When then-Sen. Bill Nelson, a Democrat, made a similar assertion about Russian hacking last year, Scott assailed him on the campaign trail, demanding proof and calling the comment "irresponsible." Scott, a Republican and governor at the time, unseated Nelson in November. The FBI told DeSantis that Florida Department of Law Enforcement employees serving on a cybersecurity task force were aware of the Russian intrusion. DeSantis said it wasn't clear why that information was not shared with top state officials.
