"We should carefully consider whether our election system, our election process, is critical infrastructure like the financial sector, like the power grid," Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson said.
"There's a vital national interest in our election process, so I do think we need to consider whether it should be considered by my department and others critical infrastructure," he said at media conference earlier this month hosted by the Christian Science Monitor.
DHS has a vital security role in 16 areas of critical infrastructure and they provide a model for what the department and Johnson could have in mind for the election.
DHS describes it this way on their website: "There are 16 critical infrastructure sectors whose assets, systems, and networks, whether physical or virtual, are considered so vital to the United States that their incapacitation or destruction would have a debilitating effect on security, national economic security, national public health or safety, or any combination thereof."
A White House policy directive adds, "The federal government also has a responsibility to strengthen the security and resilience of its own critical infrastructure, for the continuity of national essential functions, and to organize itself to partner effectively with and add value to the security and resilience efforts of critical infrastructure owners and operators."

Internet take over October 1st, and now DHS to fix the election.
Looks like the Globalist by their ACTIONS know Hillary is about to lose to Trump.
The Globalist are attempting to steal the election because they have lost the information war.
For the record, where is the Republican controlled congress to stop Obama from giving the Internet over to the U.N.?
Tomorrow we will know which one of the talk show people are the real conservatives. The acid test is tomorrow. We also find out which one of our Republic leaders are conservative.
The Feds must know Hillary is going to lose...., and now they are going to try to steal the election.
The Chicago way. Hillary’s home town.
What could possibly go wrong?/s
Purple fingers and paper ballots.....it’s been done before.
SkyPilot, I think we’re okay this election — at least Federally.
There’s only 69 days until the 2016’s, and Jeh said this way back on August 3. There’s been no significant movement since then. Might have been a Fraud Trial Balloon.
I expect heavy fraud, but not centrally-directed. I expect it precinct-by-precinct.
Even with massive fraud, Trump may pull it out.
If so, he’s got exactly four years to root out all the corruption or America is cooked.
If he makes it, expect a rogue SS agent to take a shot at him.
This is total BS.
Jeh’s comments were made August 3rd.
Tyranny. Do you trust the criminal fed government?
Here it comes. Lock and load.
Oh, HELL no!
These damn people have too much to to ‘think’.
Yeah, lets have year round voting while we’re at it.
I’ve worked for the Feds. No way they can pull this off in 69 days.
Light up the switchboards? Ha....Good one!!
Wow. They aren’t even being subtle to ensure Hillary steals the election.
240 years of elections, wars, depressions, etc and never had a problem. Only since our historic black man has been president and his diverse administration came to be is there a problem.
Congress won’t do a damned thing, they are quite happy with the idea.
The problem is time.
69 days is not long enough to pull this off.
Not a power delegated by the Constitution to the feds, therefore, it is tyranny. States, resist tyranny and DON’T ACQUIESCE.
Well, well, well.
They have “announced” their intentions, and over two months ahead of time. How “courteous” of them.
We are about to witness Hard Tyranny in our land, another Nov 1963 moment.
Eyes wide open.
