Description

An essential guide for anyone looking to understand what makes elections work, and the safeguards built into the electoral process. On the eve of the 2024 U.S. Presidential election, we dive deep into the systems in place that ensure our elections are safe, secure and accurate.

We embark on a timely and crucial journey to understand how our elections function, the potential threats they face, and the checks and balances in place so voters can rest assured that the election results reflect the will of the people.

Through eye-opening interviews with top lawyers, and democracy’s frontline heroes—such as poll workers and civil servants—the series not only informs but also empowers.

Listeners will come away equipped with the knowledge needed to recognize misinformation, understand their rights as voters, and more fully participate in our democracy. Because here’s the thing: our electoral system works, and we’re here to help you understand why.

Join us as we decode the complexities of democracy, ensuring that every listener is not only a witness to history but an informed participant in ensuring our electoral system is transparent and resilient. Get the insights and tools to help you contribute to a healthier democracy: follow Democracy Decoded on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you listen.
