  `` No one 's been tougher on Russia than this administration . What we 've done to secure our elections , to make sure that every vote counts , every vote matters , is unprecedented . It was the Barack Obama administration who knew Russia was going to meddle and they did nothing . It was our administration that put a whole of government approach in place . We are now working with local governments , state , local levels , using FBI , DHS and others to ensure that those elections are protected . In fact , we 're running tests in many states as well so that we can make sure that those devices they count votes on can not be tampered with , can not be meddled with . ''
