Description

We trust digital technology with so many sensitive aspects of our lives. Could voting systems work the same way? In countries like the US and UK, experts often insist it’s next to impossible. But what if we told you the tiny European nation of Estonia has been voting online since 2005? 
In this episode, we take a closer look at the way the Estonian system works, the biggest obstacles to online voting in the US, and what it might take to transform one of the most important functions of our society.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
