WINK News reports:

The Florida Department of Law Enforcement is now investigating after one man allegedly hacked in to the Lee County’s Supervisor of Elections website.

Dan Sinclair, who is running for Supervisor of Elections, says his friend, David Levin, accidentally hacked in to the website. Sinclair and Levin posted a video online showing the hack and say they presented the information to current Supervisor of elections Sharon Harrington. Sinclair said his friend, Dave Levin, was trying to show how a good website should be secure then accidentally hacked into the Supervisor of Elections site.

Levin works for a cyber security company and is the former campaign manager for April Freeman. He said he is bracing for possible criminal charges.
