Federal officials told California last week that Russians probed the state's election system for vulnerabilities before the 2016 election.  That's raised new questions about a bill on Governor Jerry Brown's desk.  As Capital Public Radio's Ben Bradford reports, cyber security experts say the measure could weaken California's voting systems.
