"In a little-noticed 6-3 vote today, the House Administration Committee voted along party lines to eliminate the Election Assistance Commission, which helps states run elections and is the only federal agency charged with making sure voting machines can’t be hacked. The EAC was created after the disastrous 2000 election in Florida as part of the Help America Vote Act"

"It’s particularly ironic that the Trump administration is preparing to launch a massive investigation into nonexistent voter fraud based on the lie that millions voted illegally while House Republicans are shutting down the agency that is supposed to make sure America’s elections are secure"

It just gets richer by the day
 
“It is my firm belief that the EAC has outlived its usefulness and purpose,” said Committee chair Gregg Harper (R-MS), explaining why his bill transfers the EAC’s authority to the Federal Election Commission.

So, it is still going to exist, just under the FEC.

That's Gregg's opinion, and Gregg is a Republican, and of course they have been attempting to dump it for years, but now they got a Senate and President to approve the cut. It also the only local contact, the FEC is the agency that funds efforts, but it doesn't have a hands on presence

Well, to tell you the truth, two reasons, responses are too slow, and, a large part of the responses are the usual "we won, it's Obama's fault, Clinton is a loser" variety
