Today in Solartopia we visit ELECTION CHAOS IN NORTH CAROLINA (IT’S NOT AN ACCIDENT)
Our guests STEVE ROSENFELD and JOHN BRAKEY give us the low-down on how the Trump “Justice” Department is wrecking havoc with the conduct of this fall’s polling in the TarHeel State.
Steve has become one of our nation’s leading experts in election protection. John is advocating a new generation of voting machines that provide a digital image ballot.
The Trump anti-democracy assault has targeted NC with absurd demands for millions of old ballots and other voting materials which they intend to turn over to immigration authorities. As Rosenfeld and Brakey point out, this can intimidate voters in a state that’s closely divided between Democrats and Republicans, and where bitter battles are raging over the powers of the governor, impeachment of the state Supreme Court, illegally gerrymandered Congressional districts and much more.
Throughout the hour we go ever deeper into the morass of our deliberately trashed and desperately needed democracy. If you are at all concerned about the future, don’t miss this show.
