So, where do we go from here? And no other foreign country has tried to influence a US election before, right? And we didn't do anything to influence Italian elections in 1948 (and many other years and countries).
Do we actually get an invalidated election result? We get the mainstream joining the electoral college revolt and we end up with John Kasich as president? We get a re-vote?

"It is the assessment of the intelligence community that Russia's goal here was to favor one candidate over the other, to help Trump get elected,' said a senior U.S. official briefed on an intelligence presentation made to U.S. senators. 'That's the consensus view."
In a previous assessment, CIA officials had thought Russians intervened with the intention of undermining Americans' electoral system, Adam Entous, one of the Post story's reporters, tells NPR's Scott Simon.
On Friday evening, the Trump transition team fired back with a statement dismissing the report of the agency's conclusion.
