〔编译周柏宪／综合报导〕 美国选举遭到俄国干预？一名美国资深民主党议员周日（2）表示，近期入侵美国选举系统的幕后主使者是俄国，而且这点“毫无疑问”；川普则是怀疑骇客来自中国。

《路透》报导，就在美国和州政府对投票机和资料库的安全性表达高度关注之际，民主党籍众议员史契夫（Adam Schiff）不认为政府有任何问题，直指俄国就是美国选举系统遭入侵的幕后黑手；史契夫也呼吁欧巴马政府公开谴责企图破坏美国11月总统大选的莫斯科。

就连共和党总统参选人川普也认为，这场选举被操弄了。此外，上周川普与希拉里辩论时表示，民主党全国委员会（DNC）遭到入侵，“有可能是俄国所为，但也可能是中国，或是一个体重181公斤、坐在床上的骇客。”

美国政治机构遭到数次大型网路攻击，包括民主党全国委员会和数名个人案件。一名参与调查选举系统入侵事件的美国官员透露，美国国家安全局、国土安全部、以及FBI数周前口胫一致，认为此攻击事件由俄国情报单位主导和协调。

该官员也透露，白宫高层不愿公该俄罗斯骇客姓名，免得遭受更多的网路攻击。

根据路透，官员和专家曾表示，这种分散管理而且老旧过时美国投票科技让被骇的机会大大增加。

'No doubt' Russia behind hacks on U.S. election system: senior Democrat

(Reuters) A senior Democratic lawmaker said Sunday he had "no doubt" that Russia was behind recent hacking attempts targeting state election systems, and urged the Obama administration to publicly blame Moscow for trying to undermine confidence in the Nov. 8 presidential contest.

The remarks from Representative Adam Schiff, the top Democrat on the intelligence committee in the U.S. House of Representatives, come amid heightened concerns among U.S. and state officials about the security of voting machines and databases, and unsubstantiated allegations from Republican candidate Donald Trump that the election could be "rigged."

"I have no doubt [this is Russia]. And I don’t think the administration has any doubt," Schiff said during an appearance on ABC's "This Week."

Schiff's call to name and shame the Kremlin came a week after Trump questioned widely held conclusions made privately by the U.S. intelligence community that Russia is responsible for the hacking activity.

"It could be Russia, but it could also be China," Trump said during a televised debate with Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton. "It also could be somebody sitting on their bed that weighs 400 pounds."

On Saturday, Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson said hackers have probed the voting systems of many U.S. states but there is no sign that they have manipulated any voting data.

Schiff said he doubted hackers could falsify vote tallies in a way to affect the election outcome. Officials and experts have said the decentralized and outdated nature of U.S. voting technology makes such hacks more unlikely.

But cyber attacks on voter registration systems could "sow discord" on election day, Schiff said. He further added that leaks of doctored emails would be difficult to disprove and could "be election altering."

The National Security Agency, FBI and DHS all concluded weeks ago that Russian intelligence agencies conducted, directed or coordinated all the major cyberattacks on U.S. political organizations, including the Democratic National Committee, and individuals, a U.S. official who is participating in the investigations said on Sunday.

However, the official said, White House officials have resisted naming the Russians publicly because doing so could result in escalating cyberattacks, and because it is considered impossible to offer public, unclassified proof of the allegation.

Schiff and Senator Dianne Feinstein, the top Democrat on the U.S. Senate intelligence committee, said last month they had concluded Russian intelligence agencies were "making a serious and concerted effort to influence the U.S. election."
