Trump and the GOP are working harder to disenfranchise voters NOW than they were in 2020. They are no longer a majoritarian party and want to disrupt our electoral process as much as they can. How will we preserve the integrity of this election? What are some of the ways that Trump and GOP lawyers will attempt to derail the will of the people? Our friend and top Democratic election lawyer Marc Elias from Democracy Docket joins us to break down some of the ways that our democracy is under attack and what we can do to fight it.

Marc is truely a unsung hero of democracy. Go get them Marc!

@J.M.-nb4gw 3 дня назад

Marc Elias is indeed an American hero and millions of Americans should know who he is because we are ALL indebted to him for his fight for democracy in this country. I think many millions more people know about Marc thanks to Brian Tyler Cohen and his 3 million subscribers on RU-vid. That's where I first heard Marc Elias and I listen to every single one of his episodes with Brian. Srsly Marc Elias and his incredible team of lawyers and staff have been fighting the good fight for all of us for years, and especially since Trump Republicans have attempted to overthrow the government. People like owl and Mark and Brian and others are "poking holes in the potatoes" every freaking day and the rest of us need to do our part in fighting the fascists who would take over our government and country! I'm glad I listened to that story at the end because it does describe very well what we all need what to do on an individual basis!

Marc Elias cannot wait.....the Vigilanties are in place with their new rules backed by Kemp, Raffensperger, Carr et al. It turns to self-preservation... GEORGIA does not want to be Trump.s EXECUTIONER.

Sadly, after months of writing and calling and answering every survey and donating, the Democratic party has wagered that they can do without my vote as a Muslim American. Let's see how that works out. Don't blame me for being uncommitted, the Democratic party shut us out of the DNC. We very much want to vote for Harris, but she has made clear she is deaf to us.

Georgia here -- fired up and ready to go. Early voting in person begins in just a few weeks -- and that's how I'm doing it. I vote in EVERY election -- the last one was in June -- a runoff between two county judges. btw -- consider this: The January 2023 runoff between Herschel Walker and Raphael Warnock. You KNOW Georgia is changing when you can get my sorry old white a$$ out on a freezing cold day to choose between two African American men. Both Senators Warnock and Ossoff are doing GREAT.

@BMrider75 4 дня назад

With 45 days to go to the election, it is simply unbelievable, to this sane and rational listener, that the race is close. Alarming that so many trumpists are intent on not certifying a fair result. Keep up the excellent work Marc, and thanks Al for a great one. ... for a change.

Trump already told his followers this is the last time they will ever have to vote. That was before he started saying he doesn't need their vote. Trump indicated he was going to win in a way other than votes. Vote 💙 blue.
