Here’s what the Detroit News is reporting:

The FBI is investigating an apparent attack by hackers that today shut down the Internet Web site of U.S. Senate candidate Mike Bouchard. Anyone trying to log on to MikeforMichigan.com gets a message saying the site was shut down as a result of an attack by hackers.
David All, a spokesman for Bouchard’s Republican campaign, said attackers created a program that resulted in the site being bombarded with massive requests for information that shut the site down. Workers were trying to get the site back up but it was unlikely to happen before the polls closed, All said.
Investigators tracked the source of the attack to Maryland, he said. “The Detroit FBI office had a referral on this matter,” said FBI spokeswoman Dawn Clenney. “We’ve been advised of it and our cyber-crime squad is looking into it.”
All said a smaller attack with similar fingerprints happened about one week ago. At the time, campaign officials were not sure whether the problem was due to heavy volumes resulting from a new video message that had been posted on the site. “We know there are still a number of undecided voters out there and folks still making up their minds,” All said. He described the attack as a political dirty trick but said he did not want to point fingers at who might have been behind it.
