Video Link to Interview of Man Who Successfully Sued to End E-voting and Counting in Germany
and discussion with two highly respected U.S. election integrity activists.

This is a long radio program broken into 12 parts. The first two parts are boring intro which I recommend skipping. (You can click on part 3 on the page's Playlist, and start there.) Parts 3 through 9 offer wonderful clarity on what's at stake, and how Dr. Wiesner focused his case on the right to transparency of elections for individual citizens as the difference between a 'real' democracy and a 'pretend' one. The U.S. guests describe their journey to awareness that delegating validity to "experts" is abandoning democracy, and explain why. They also touch on Internet voting and mail-in voting. There's not much to recommend parts 10 - 12, so it's safe to skip those, too.

One caveat--please be prepared to withstand a couple of sentences early on by the nudnick host of the show denying global warming. Fortunately he doesn't talk much.
