Listen to this quick discussion with "The Good Party" (thegoodparty.org) founder Farhad Mohit as he explains all the ways their innovative technology hopes to bring democratic power back to the people.
Farhad Mohit is a graduate of the Wharton School of Business, and has been involved in the creation of several successful tech start-ups including Bizrate, Shopzilla, and Flipagram, which went on to become the massively impactful TikTok. Now, though, Farhad is determined to save American democracy.
Farhad has dedicated himself to creating thegoodparty.org, which is a tech platform dedicated to bringing several intriguing tech innovations to American government in order to improve democracy. Some of the unique ideas discussed are crowd-sourcing votes for candidates, body-cams for politicians, and ways to minimize money's influence over our elections.
