In this the third program of the Democracy Dialogues we are going to look more closely at voter suppression and other ways the out of control, out of alignment portion of the MAGA version of the Republican Party is doing all it can to destroy Democracy in America.  And we are going to explore this topic from the perspectives of featured guests Emily Levy, Founder of Scrutineers and Andrea Miller from Center For Common Ground.
