But then why would they be doing it right now? I'm sure they already know if they can do it or not. I don't think they need to do a large scale test run that would put people on high alert. They'd keep their head down until election day.

But then, what is China or Russia going to get out of doing something like this? It isn't going to change anything. Hillary is the next president regardless. Hell, even if no votes could be counted I am sure the Supreme Court wouldn't have a problem calling it for her.

So to me the idea that China and Russia is doing this for political reasons doesn't make any sense.
