Details here. From the overview:
- Elections are the heart of democracy. It is the way “we the people” choose our leaders and hold them accountable. But since the November 2000 elections when flawed voter registration lists, obsolete voting machines, and poorly designed ballots marred the electoral process, public confidence in our voting system has declined. Although Congress enacted the Help America Vote Act of 2002, one in three Americans still question whether their vote will be counted accurately. Tune in to this special edition of Justice Talking when we travel to the Carter Center in Atlanta, Georgia to talk with former President Jimmy Carter and members of the Commission on Federal Election Reform. A conversation with former Secretary of State James Baker is also featured. The program, co-sponsored by Court TV, is co-hosted by NPR’s Michel Martin (sitting in for Margot Adler) and Court TV’s Catherine Crier.”
