Active Russian cyberattacks are underway against U.S. government systems across the board, federal authorities revealed on Thursday — including those of election systems.

A bulletin from the FBI and Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency describes a broad ongoing attempt to compromise American networks, including "some risk" to elections information.

Top national security officials announced Wednesday that Iran and Russia have obtained voter registration data and are trying to influence the U.S. presidential election.

On Wednesday, the government reported foreign actions, taken to affect public opinion related to U.S. elections. It comes after voters in Alaska and Florida reported receiving threatening emails.

The problem isn't with the results taking a little while to tabulate, experts say. The problem is with conspiracy theories that pop up as a result.

Early voting numbers continue to shatter records, and experts predict long lines will become less of a problem over the coming weeks.

Early voting numbers are shattering records, indicating sky-high voter enthusiasm this year. But there have also been administrative issues, including long lines and absentee-ballot mistakes.

Most of the country lets election officials do the arduous process of opening and sorting absentee ballots long before Election Day. In Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania, they have to wait.

Voters and politicians alike will be clamoring for quick results on Nov. 3. But in some swing states, where law prevents early absentee ballot processing, that won't be possible.

With an unprecedented number of people planning to vote by mail this year, what can voters do to ensure their ballot isn't disqualified?

This summer, experts expected more than half of all Americans to vote by mail. Recent polls seem to indicate the number to be significantly lower, which could mean extraordinary lines in some places.

Polls show more people are planning to vote in-person while the number of people planning to vote by mail is shrinking — due to fears about the Postal Service's reliability and political rhetoric.

Changes in Wisconsin and North Carolina mean absentee ballots that are postmarked by Election Day will count, if received within six and nine days of the election, respectively.

The postmaster general spoke to dozens of the nation's top election officials Thursday, ahead of an election season that will see record numbers of mail ballots.

Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger says 1,000 people voted twice in the state's primary election this year but said he had no evidence the cases weren't honest mistakes. The state is investigating.

The president has backed off his attacks on the Postal Service but continues to question the integrity of mail ballots, without providing any evidence.

Louis DeJoy reportedly tells officials he's setting up a task force to make sure each mail processing plant has sufficient capacity to handle the expected surge in mailed ballots this year.
