NEW YORK CITY — Vice President Mike Pence told private sector leaders and top cybersecurity government officials Tuesday he had no doubt Russia attempted to and interfered in the 2016 election in which President Trump was elected to office.

“The fact is, Russia meddled in our 2016 elections. That is the unambiguous judgment of our intelligence community,” Pence said at the Department of Homeland Security’s first-ever summit on cybersecurity in New York City.
