Russian hacking, fake news--if the last election taught us anything, it’s that your vote is a valuable commodity.
We’ll look at the issue of partisan gerrymandering after U.S Supreme Court justices heard arguments on the case earlier this week.
Recently, federal homeland security officials announced hackers targeted 21 states including Connecticut. We’ll talk to Connecticut’s Secretary of the State about elections and cybersecurity.
And while Russian interference shocked Americans this last election cycle, fake news and hacking is nothing new for Ukraine. What can we learn from that country's experience with Russia?
