Did Russians Hack the 2016 Election?

Yes, it looks like some Russians hacked John Podesta's emails. This was wrong. However, this is not the same as "hacking the election," as the media keeps saying. Actually, many politicians' emails have been hacked in the past - including Sarah Palin, Colin Powell, George H.W. Bush, British Home Secretary Theresa May, the Climate Research Unit and - recently - three UK politicians who were using insecure WiFi services.
This brings up another point: Often when politicians' emails are hacked, it's because they are ignorant of the threats that are out there as well as the laws created to protect them from these threats.

Did Russians Influence the 2016 Election?

Yes, the Russians likely hacked Clinton campaign emails. Yes, it was both wrong and illegal. But no, hacking politicians' emails and posting them online is not a new phenomenon. It also happened to Sarah Palin during the 2008 campaign (Link) and, more recently, Colin Powell.
