Episode 577: How do Republicans plan to keep you from voting? - Investigative journalist GREG PALAST (2020)
The final day to vote - what used to be Election Day - is just over a week away. Here’s my conversation with investigative journalist GREG PALAST recorded prior to election day 2020. He laid out voter suppression efforts - closing poll sites, purging voter rolls, manipulating voting machines, and putting obstacles in the way of voting by mail - that The Trump administration and many state governments used to keep Americans from voting. Yet turnout broke records. Sadly Republican tactics are the same this year and we assume they've learned from their mistakes. We won’t know how well till the votes are counted - and certified.
