Lost elections and missing legislation

摘要

It was more than just a political upset that U.S. Sen. Joseph Lieberman faced recently. Something else interesting happened during the state of Connecticut's Democratic primary election, something that, as of press time, federal officials were still in the midst of investigating. Lieberman's website reportedly fell prey to a denial of service (DoS) attack a day before the election began. The investigation is centering on whether or not such an attack on Lieberman's campaign site could have compromised his ability to win the spot that would get him to November's all-important general election — the very spot to which Ned Lamont is now heading.
