Tim Canova Deletes Tweet Implying Debbie Wasserman Schultz Fried His Surge Protector

Saturday, Canova tweeted that some sort of computer hack and/or electrical surge had fried both his computer and surge protector Thursday night — and implied Wasserman Schultz or the DNC might have been linked to the alleged attack.

"Announced last night 8 p.m. run vs. @DWSTweets again," he wrote. "At 2 a.m. my computer was attacked & surge protector fried. Same happened last campaign."



Via email, Canova said he heard a "high-pitched sound coming from the surge protector" around 2 a.m. Thursday. He said that he could not see a storm outside his home but that if it was an "intentional attack," it could have "been anyone" who dislikes him, not necessarily Wasserman Schultz. But his tweet clearly said the surge came hours after he declared his candidacy. (A spokesperson for Wasserman Schultz did not immediately respond to an email requesting comment.)

After Canova announced the alleged "hack," more than a few electricians and engineers online pointed out that what Canova is describing is basically impossible. It's almost physically impossible for someone to send voltage toward a surge protector from a computer and therefore "fry" it: Surge protectors stop voltage from traveling one way, from a power source to a computer, not vice versa.
