Sarah and Andrea interview Barbara Simons PhD, a computer scientist who specializes in election security, to answer the question on everyone’s mind: can our voting machines be attacked? Were they attacked in 2016? What’s in store for the midterms, and what can we, as citizens, do to protect our democracy? Plus a news recap, including Oleg Sentsov’s 100th day on hunger strike protesting the treatment of political prisoners in Russia (#FreeSentsov), Omarosa’s receipts, and Manafort’s endless trial.
