Like other lawmakers in a handful of states, Pennsylvania Senate Republicans have initiated a sham review of the 2020 general election. On a party-line vote, a committee of the state Senate voted to subpoena the personally identifying information of all nine million registered voters in Pennsylvania. The subpoena demands voters' names, addresses, dates of birth, driver's license numbers, and partial Social Security numbers. ACLU-PA has joined a lawsuit challenging the subpoena as co-counsel for eight individuals and three advocacy organizations - Make The Road Pennsylvania, Common Cause PA, and the League of Women Voters of PA. Oral arguments in the case will be held on December 15 before the Commonwealth Court in Harrisburg. In this episode, we hear from Diana Robinson, civic engagement director for Make The Road PA, and Marian Schneider, consulting attorney on elections and voting rights for ACLU-PA. Marian and Diana discuss why the Senate's sham review is an unnecessary distraction from real issues, why it threatens both voting rights and the right to privacy, and how supporters of democracy can support and protect the franchise. Learn more about this case at aclupa.org/Dush. Learn more about the work of Make The Road PA at maketheroadpa.org, on Facebook, and on Twitter [at]MakeTheRoadPA.

US intelligence agencies confirm that during the run-up to the 2016 elections Russian hackers attacked DNC & RNC election & related servers. Digital attacks on voter registration servers occurred in all states & in a few isolated cases hackers got into voter records servers. Voter fraud at polls is verifiably low, but voting & elections systems have significant security vulnerabilities due to wide diversity of systems & administration practices throughout all the USA, along with risks from varying ages of systems used. What are security risks in voting systems, software & tech currently used in the USA? How is social engineering used in attempts to voting systems? How can risk limiting audits be used to assure voting integrity? Listen to Marian Schneider, President of Verified Voting, discuss her organization's research findings for voting systems & explain risks in current voting systems, and risky practices, such as how voting is occurring in some places via email and fax.
If a vote falls in a ballot box, but there’s no one there to see it - does it count? Marian Schneider, President of Verified Voting, explains why so many of our national voting systems have absolutely no way of being audited. Digital technology has been a wonderful boon for this world, but when it comes to something as fundamental to democracy as casting a vote, you simply must have a physical record that you can verify by hand if necessary. It may already be too late for the 2018 midterm elections, but we simply must have this fixed for 2020. We’ll tell you how you can get involved and make a real difference. This is a non-partisan issue that affects us all. As the President of Verified Voting, Marian Schneider brings a strong grounding in the legal and constitutional elements governing voting rights and elections, as well as experience in election administration at the state level. Immediately before becoming President of Verified Voting, Marian served as Special Advisor and Deputy Secretary for Elections and Administration, to Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf. Marian received her J.D. from The George Washington University, where she was a member of the Law Review, and earned her B.A. degree cum laude from the University of Pennsylvania.
