Election Undercard 2024
Manage episode 439180207 series 2930729
Zombie voters. Sham elections. Voter fraud.
In the months leading up to the 2024 presidential election, election lawsuits are flooding courts across the U.S., with the timing of some geared more toward grabbing headlines than achieving legal resolutions. Allegations aren’t considered true until a judge’s final order, but that doesn’t stop people from believing them.
In our 10th episode this season, we uncover the raw truths behind the politicized world of election integrity starting in Grand Junction, Colo., where a 2021 municipal election became a flashpoint for ideological battles and unfounded claims of voter fraud leading to the intricate legal quagmire surrounding Tina Peters, a former Colorado election official embroiled in controversy.
From there, we zero in on the world of pre-election litigation and voter registration errors in legal battles raging across states like Arizona, Ohio and Pennsylvania, touching on the delicate balance between security and transparency.
Special guests:
- Attorney Bruce L. Castor Jr.
- Bobbie Gross, clerk and recorder for Mesa County, Colo.
- Abe Herman, mayor of Grand Junction, Colo.
- Marly Hornik, chief executive officer of United Sovereign Americans
- Leah Tulin, senior counsel at the Brennan Center for Justice’s Democracy Program
- Witold "Vic" Walczak, legal director of the ACLU of Pennsylvania
This episode was produced by Kirk McDaniel. Intro music by The Dead Pens.
Editorial staff is Bill Dotinga, Sean Duffy and Jamie Ross.
