Today the /Texas Observer/, Austin based and founded 1954, published my 
new article, first in a series about whistleblower Reality Winner:

https://www.texasobserver.org/reality-winner-vr-systems-whistleblower/

My article discusses the 2016 cyberattacks Reality Winner disclosed -- 
two interrelated spearphishing offensives by Kremlin military officers, 
first against election technology supplier VR Systems, then against 
local Florida elections officials -- in the context of the Texas 
Secretary of State certifying the vendor's e-pollbooks for use statewide 
in Texas a little more than a year ago. I interview a county information 
security officer, two county elections administrators, as well as 
Winner's mother and lawyer, all of them Texans. Toward the end of the 
piece, I discuss polarization and historical context around various 
evidence for, and various lack of evidence for, election meddling in the 
United States.
