Ben Katz is a political internet pioneer and Chief Architect ISPolitical and concerned about getting beyond the hyper-partisanship when dealing with questions about how to make sure elections are safe and secure.
We also talk about:
- Need to return to expertise in political campaigns. Ben says the traditional gatekeepers are gone replaced by eager amateurs and brute anger.
