Considering how militant US politics is I wouldn't be too surprised if the people in power are actually OK with cyber-attacks as long as they go their way.
Coming from Germany I don't even comprehend how the US is not able to run elections in a way that can be trusted. The 2000 Supreme Court decision should have been a big warning. I really believe there are a lot of people who don't want to fix the system because it would take away the opportunity to create more theater and conspiracy theories along party lines

Instead it seems the partisans are perfectly fine with a lot of citizens not trusting the election system. This is a really dangerous game. Once people don't trust elections or the judiciary democracy is in grave danger.
