Topic: Signature Verification

Technical issues with barcode readability and signature verification in Maricopa County and Georgia are compared to the troubled electronic health record modernization at the Department of Veterans Affairs. The VA project reportedly caused thousands of cases of harm and several deaths due to software glitches like disappearing prescriptions. The hosts use this as a cautionary tale for implementing complex, unproven technology in critical government functions like voting.

CNN's Jake Tapper is criticized for his dismissive coverage of attorneys Sidney Powell and Lin Wood, who are challenging the Georgia election results. The hosts analyze an NBC report on the "whipsaw" editing used to portray Trump's demands for signature verification as unlawful or impossible for Governor Brian Kemp to fulfill.
