Using the Law to Protect the Law: A Conversation with Democratic Super Lawyer Marc Elias

Democracy’s white knight Marc Elias joins us to explain that we aren’t just fighting election suppression & subversion, we’re now fighting election vigilanteism and the new Republican strategy of standing in defiance of the law itself. The GOP seems to have decided it’s simply good politics to say you’re fighting a corrupt system when you, yourself, are the ones corrupting it. As Marc points out, one of the biggest ways to stop these extreme moves against our elections is to raise awareness of what’s going on. So today we talk what’s happening, what’s being done to counter it, and what we can all do to support democracy moving forward.  As always, if you enjoy what we do, please consider SUBSCRIBING to PoliticsGirl Premium.
