American democracy is under attack in more ways than ever before. From the disinformation and voter suppression efforts based on Trump’s Big Lie, to the GOP abandoning democracy for their own power, to foreign cyber attacks and good old fashion voter machine manipulation. Congress is unable to pass a voter protection bill because the Republicans keep stonewalling and now the GOP are actively telling us they’re going to elect people who will cheat, suppress and even invalidate votes to make sure their candidates end up on top. We all need to vote, but we also need our votes are safe and secure when we do it. Today we talk to election security advocate, lawyer and political writer, Jennifer Cohn about what we can do, what we should demand and what we can look out for when it comes to protecting our elections.
