Susan Greenhalgh, Senior Advisor on Election Security for Free Speech for People, joins Deepak Puri, Founder of The Democracy Labs, to pull back the curtain on the security of voting machines and how election results can be manipulated. Having paper ballots provides physical verification of votes and enables post-election audits and recounts when necessary. Still, a broader focus is needed to ensure all votes are counted and reported accurately, with proper protective measures in place.

Deepak and Susan talk about

  • Critical vulnerabilities in the US voting system
  • Post-election audits and validation of election results
  • Federal interference threats to mail-in voting and voter eligibility
  • Maintaining confidence in the election system
