It's been acknowledged by members of the current administration that the Russians hacked into States and interfered with the 2016 election. You even had Tillerson speak to that yesterday.
In my opinion - they are giving cover to the Russians to do the same or worse in 2018 - and they are also giving cover to sympathetic Repugs in the States to mess around with the voting process.
The Repugs are up against the wall Even they fear the approaching Blue Wave that will allow the Dems to take back control of the House and maybe even the Senate.
I expect that all sorts of interfering will go on in the 2018 elections - and a bulk of the interfering will actually come from Repugs in the States to steal the election. We already know they have gerrymandering going for them. They have a number of voter suppression programs in place in the States - and now - by members of the current administration pointing fingers at Russia - they have given cover to the States for them to meddle with the voter registration and voter processes in the States to steal this election and blame it on the Russians.
