The Obama administration was warned of Russian preparations to disrupt western elections as early as 2014, Politico reports.
The initial 2014 report presented to the administration described a disruption apparatus spanning the U.S. and Europe, although it did not specifically mention a Kremlin threat to the U.S. 2016 election. Throughout the 2014-2016 period intelligence officials reportedly brought several options to counter Russian cyber-espionage efforts world-wide, but were brushed off by the Obama White House.
