Russian disinformation campaign attacks U.S. mail-in voting
A U.S. Department of Homeland Security report has accused Russian actors of launching a disinformation campaign amplifying attacks on U.S. mail-in voting ahead of the November elections. The alleged culprits are not precisely identified but are said to encompass proxies and state-affiliated media, possibly including RT and Sputnik. The disinformation narratives claimed that mail-in voting lacks integrity and transparency, and also attempted to heighten racial divisions with additional misleading claims.
