Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee Targeted by Cyber-Attack

The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee has been targeted in a cyber-attack, the committee's national press secretary Meredith Kelly said today.

"The DCCC can confirm that we have been the target of a cybersecurity incident," Kelly said in a statement to ABC News.

An investigation into the attack is ongoing but investigators have said "this is similar to other recent incidents, including the DNC breach," Kelly said, referring to the recent hack of the Democratic National Committee.

The DCCC is the main fundraising organization for Democrats running for election in the House of Representatives.
