Kintsugi Democracy_ Putting it Back Together - THE COUNT with David Becker

Published | Video Starts at 08:43

The 2022 election was one of the first major tests of the public's tolerance for continued attacks on our democracy since 2020, and in one crucial respect, the result was encouraging. In six battleground states, Arizona, Michigan, Nevada, Georgia, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania, candidates who spread lies about past elections ran for offices that would directly administer the 2024 elections. In those states, some said out loud that they would administer elections in a way that would guarantee the election of members of their own party. (08:43–08:58)
