In June, VoteTrustUSA successfully brought the issue to the attention of Kitty Pilgrim of CNN’s Lou Dobbs Tonight program. Beginning with a story about the foreign ownership of Sequoia Voting systems, we successfully moved the story into the overall problems of e-voting. Because VoteTrustUSA has been able to provide reliable background information, key sources and interview subjects on a daily basis, the issue is now a regular feature on the Dobbs’ program, titled “Democracy At Risk.” The segments of the series are available below in Windows Media format (also viewable on QuickTime). Text transcripts are also available.
Over the course of the summer, Dobbs and Pilgram have interviewed many of the most important critics of electronic voting including Avi Rubin, David Dill, Dan Walach, Ion Sancho, members of Congress, and leaders of VoteTrustUSA and state level election integrity organizations from around the country. We are continuing to work with the Lou Dobbs Tonight team to build the story, with the intention of moving in the direction of the immediate need for passage of HR 550 and Congressional investigations of the lack of effective oversight and regulation of the privatized election “industry.” If you would like this coverage to continue, please use the feedback form at to let the producers know how important this issue is to you.
