WASHINGTON, D.C. (WNAX) – The focus of the investigation by Special Prosecutor Robert Mueller was Russian interference in the 2016 election. Much of that was lost in the political battle.

South Dakota Congressman Dusty Johnson says everyone needs to pay attention to that.

Johnson says it is a matter of national security.

A bill dealing with election security is being held up in the Senate.

Johnson says they need to find another way.

A recent report from the FBI found that there were attempts to hack into the election systems in all 50 states.
