With the most consequential election in a generation just days
away, we continue to ask ourselves: are state and local governments
ready for this? With recent cyber intrusions from adversaries such
as Russia and Iran, a historic surge in early voting, and fears
about post-election disinformation on social media, there’s a lot
to be concerned about. While this election will be a monumental
task for local officials, Verified Voting’s Interim Co-Director and
political scientist Mark Lindeman tells us that there are ways to
ensure that every vote is counted fairly. Tune in for a follow up
to last week’s episode on the security of our election machinery to
hear Mark and Gigi discuss what keeps election experts up at night,
and what we can do to help ensure our voices are heard in this
episode of Tech on the Rocks!
