Losing campaign managers for two electoral campaigns formed a joint effort to combat election hacking. Mitt Romney’s 2012 campaign manager, Matt Rhoades, and Hillary Clinton’s manager, Robby Mook, have formed a group to combat possible election hacking by the likes of Russia.
The project will be headquartered at Harvard University under the name “Defending Digital Democracy.”
It appears that Mook did not use the CNN op-ed to blame Russia for his boss’s loss to underdog Donald Trump, but this is a potentially worthwhile effort to combat cybersecurity problems facing America’s democracy in the future.
