| voter fraud occurs and it can occur on a scale the likes of which has already swung an election this century and when you look at how close the election was in 2016 and how close we expect it to be next month i think unfortunately you're very right to raise these concerns dennis if i get a which i did my my home got a bunch of the ballots if we vote by mail | |
| What is to prevent us from going and voting in person? | |
| A second time. | |
| Your conscience? | |
| Is that it? | |
| If I'm corrupt, I could vote twice? | |
| Well, conceptually, and this is one of the challenges you run into, right? | |
| Because America's election, you have to remember a couple things. | |
| Number one, it's so decentralized. | |
| So it's impossible to make a blanket statement about American elections because for every well-run county or municipality... | |
| There's something like Broward County in Florida, which is always in the news for having terrible elections. | |
| You know, so it's decentralized that way. | |
| But also, America remains a third-world country when it comes to election technology, right? | |
| Well, countries like Estonia... | |
| I think that's an insult to the third world. | |
| I mean, there are countries in Eastern Europe, small, tiny countries in Eastern Europe, like Estonia, are using blockchain technology, right? | |
| We're using... | |
| Hanging chads and unplugging machines to reset them, which happens to be one of the main reasons why you see these long lines. | |
| To be an elections official, you have to be basically an IT professional. | |
| And sadly, many people are not, right? | |
| So we have a lot of technology problems that lead to a lot of issues that people want to sort of claim as voter suppression. | |
| So, yeah, I mean, American election systems are this rickety old wagon that when this increase of mail-in ballot occurs... | |
| It's basically like throwing it on the Audubon and saying, hey, have fun. | |
| And we've sadly already seen massive problems in the climate, right? | |
| California rejected 100,000 ballots, mostly because of mismatched signatures and also because they weren't accepted past Election Day. | |
| Other states have done the same. | |
| So now states have responded to that by saying, all right, well, we'll just extend a deadline by which we'll accept ballots. | |
| So we'll accept them up to a week or 10 days after Election Day, which, I don't have to tell you, only exacerbates the likelihood of fraud that they will just have to be postmarked. | |
| By Election Day. | |
| So now the threshold to cast a secure ballot isn't even casting in person, isn't even getting in the mail, having it delivered by Election Day. |
