They hacked voter roles.  They could have commited voter fraud with the information, but this particular hack couldn't change actual votes cast.

They could have changed voter rolls to alter the outcome anyways if they have enough data about these people. Also more than one state was hacked, not all of the systems are built the same exact way. Furthermore it doesn't matter if they didn't change a single thing, you don't just sit on your hands and say "well we're fine, because nothing was really altered" for something this goddamned important.

it seems like wikileaks (org 1) personnel got lucky because of a too-narrow criminal statute.  they were involved after the actual stealing, but they were soliciting knowingly stolen materials.  looks like the statute says only the initial access is illegal, and not the dissemination of that information.

Why can't they be conspirators as accessories after the fact?

"On or about August 15, 2016, the Conspirators, posing as Guccifer 2.0, received a request for stolen documents from a candidate for the U.S. Congress.   The Conspirators responded using the Guccifer 2.0 persona and sent the candidate stolen documents related to the candidate's opponent."

Both?   I don't understand the question.  What I pasted over was from paragraph 43.a.  on pages 15-16.    The other is from paragraph 44 on page 16.

Probably.  I would hope our systems would catch that in the metadata.

And I agree on your second.  I was only trying to address JJs vote-changing.

I'm trying to understand what the issue is and I'm getting nothing.  Are you under the impression that there is only 1 person in the United States?  I'll have you know there are far more than 1.  More than even a hundred.  Those conversations could have been with different people.

That works too, they are worded exactly the same, so I was assuming only one was a real quote.

so would requiring individuals present valid government ID at a physical polling place solve this?

No, genius, because one thing you can do when you've hacked into a voter roll database is remove people from that database. You know, like people who match a profile that says they're very likely to vote for the person you don't want to win.

i think this has way more significance than anything before. the congressional candidate absolutely needs to be named. need the list of republicans running for congress in 2016.

That's what I was trying to get to.  "Campaign official" we can select from a known list.  "Candidate for Congress" means a new player.

lulz at you seeing the KGB attack the U.S. and your reaction is to try to figure out how to get a partisan advantage on it.

But that is EXACTLY where we are.

The GOP is more interested in preserving their working relationship with our enemy than protecting our country. It is the party of treason.

Definitely Stone.  Also probably a Congressional candidate in Florida.

Quote

August 15, 2016: In one Direct Message exchange, Guccifer 2.0 asks Stone: “do you find anything interesting in the docs i posted?”

August 17, 2016: Donald Trump is briefed by US intelligence agencies that Russia is implicated in the DNC hack (h/t: @RVAwonk)

August 17, 2016: In one Direct Message exchange, Guccifer 2.0 says to Stone. “please tell me if i can help u anyhow. it would be a great pleasure to me.”

August 21, 2016: Stone tweets: “Trust me, it will soon the Podesta’s time in the barrel. #CrookedHillary”

[Note: In an interview on October 19, Stone would later claim he had meant only that his tweet was not about Podesta’s emails but about business dealings, which he did not learn about from Wikileaks. Think Progress has a helpful analysis of why “Stone’s alibi falls apart.”]

August 22, 2016: Guccifer 2.0 sends to Florida GOP operative Aaron Nevins 2.5 gigabytes of data from the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC), and Nevins posts some of that data on his anonymous Florida politics blog.

Roger Stone timeline from almost a year ago.

this...as well as warning for Trump to not trust Putin in the upcoming meeting.

Definitely something Trump will take to heart. He loves people suggesting how he should behave. 

If anything, this will just reflexively push Trump even further in Putin's corner. As a malignant narcissist, he views any suggestion that anybody else helped him win the election as a personal attack which must be aggressively counter-attacked.

You didn't understand my point.  The line in the sand keeps moving . . . at what point are we dead sure they didn't change votes, or at the very least contribute to voter suppression?

I think there is probably a First Amendment flavor to that statute.

We can't be.

There is no doubt much needs to be done to secure the integrity of elections.  But, all efforts at same regress into poo flinging about racism and voter suppression.

Let's play a game called "How transparent is Incredulity"?

In Act I, he just asks a question on if Voter ID laws would help:

Then multiple point out how stupid that question is for the obvious reason.

 

Incredulity completely ignores his leading question being destroyed by logic and starts calling out EVIL LIBERALS.

Then Incredulity later posts that we can't do anything about election integrity because THE EVIL LIBERALS will start calling names. Despite the fact that, you know, he was the one who started calling names.

In short, he's very transparent.

Propose a solution then.  

Anything proposed by anyone even perceived to be a conservative will be followed with the above sanctimonious crap.

 

Indicting "Guccifer" is window dressing at best.  Does nothing to fix the problem.

Think they'll show up?

Maybe we can work out some kind of multi-legged trade where we get the Russians, we send Donald Jr. and Eric to North Korea, and our friend Un sends the remains of our military personnel killed in Korea to Russia.
