About the episode

We’re taking a deep look into one of the most the significant elections of our lifetime with the nonpartisan, veteran-led group, “Vet the Vote” who recently recruited over 163K vets to volunteer at election sites nationwide.  Army veteran, VTV Deputy Director Loren Westerfield and Navy helicopter pilot veteran, Julie Hendricks share the impact veterans make while serving at election sites. And as social media explodes (again) with; allegations of voter fraud, social users posting evidence through short video clips with minimal context and a rising sense of skepticism, we take a detailed look at their personal experiences serving as poll workers. Plus we hear what they kind of safeguards and methods they witnessed. Ultimately, we seek to answer one of the biggest questions today, “Are these elections safe, accurate and reliable?” Our veteran guests deliver fascinating and powerful answers.
