Susannah Goodman discussed the flaws in the U.S. voting system, including fraud and machine malfunctions. She mentioned that, since the voting process is highly decentralized in the U.S., widespread fear of fraud is possible, although she mentioned it is unlikely such huge fraud happens.

Viewer questions were taken via telephone and electronic devices. close
