As today’s guest, CEO of the States United Democracy Center and States United Action, Joanna Lydgate says, “The battle for democracy begins before a single ballot is cast and continues long after the polls close on election day.” We keep repeating it, but the truth is, the American election system itself is under attack. There are anti-democratic forces working hard across the country not to win elections, but to limit the vote. To interfere with election administration and officials, and to spread lies and chaos around voting. It’s a tactic, and it works. Join the conversation so you can not only understand what’s happening, but so you’re able to fight back.
