208: The Election

#SistersInLaw

Joyce Vance hosts #SistersInLaw to discuss the proliferation of election lawsuits by the Republicans, the progress of their challenges to mail-in ballots in Pennslyvania, and attempts to remove voters in Alabama and Virginia. Then, the #Sisters break down the influence of money in politics, the legality of Elon’s offer of a million dollars to registered voters who sign his petition, and the pernicious effect of Citizens United on our politics. They also explain the DOJ’s role in protecting the electoral process and our rights compared to the obligations of the states and how lawsuits can be used to defend and expand our ability to vote.
