Sen. Rick Scott, R-Fla., said Thursday that he will meet with the FBI in the coming weeks to discuss suspicions that Russia was able to hack into at least one Florida county government computer network during the 2016 presidential election.

Allegations that Russian hackers were able to access the network were raised in special counsel Robert Mueller’s 448-page report, which was released last week. Once the news was made public, Scott sent a letter to FBI Director Christopher Wray asking for information the agency had to support the claim.
