  1. Will more 67 million people tune in to watch Trump give a tonight on the eve of a vote on his impeachment? Partisan polarization, media fragmentation, fractured attention, endless on-demand entertainments, & a divisive all weigh against it. TBD.

    Remember when the took questions from the public online in a livestream after delivering the ? Or responded to the public in Twitter chats? Seems like much longer than a few years ago. If a president can’t face the people you serve, he or she is less accountable to us

    For many years now, the has livestreamed the & tweeted quotes by the , “going direct.” News outlets post text of the speech, as prepared. Journalists: PLEASE don’t livetweet remarks. Let partisans & staff do it. Instead, add context & fact-check.

  5. “Judicial Watch's garbage somehow avoids violating 's own terms of service because it doesn't actively ‘suppress voter turnout.’ That makes no sense, as diminishing faith in our elections is a prime method of keeping people from voting.”-

    This story should reinforce that incompetence should always be the first assumed explanation. Instead, a bipartisan cohort of influencers assumed malice, in the form Clinton conspiracies, a rigged caucus, Russian hacking, shadowy dark money, etc etc etc.

    An enlightening thread that gets at the bottom line issue: campaign tech should be open source. Why are we privatizing the core of our democracy?

  8. Politicians denying the legitimacy of their political opposition is both a symptom & a cause of democracies dying, whether they serve in a legislature or administration. (Or, .deity help us, if they’re an elected judge.) Don’t do it. Organize, register, vote, win power, & govern.

    This might be as good a time as any to remind you that published a State Software Budgeting Handbook to help guide decision-makers at the state level who fund or oversee state government technology projects.

    One plea from a once Iowa campaigner, now ardent evangelist for public interest technology. Whatever you care about fixing: health care, voting, climate, there is a lesson for you in the IA app failure. It isn't just about building apps. Sometimes tech can't fix your process.

    This is a tremendous thread with great insights into what really happened with the Shadow app in the Iowa caucuses.

    Elections are a technology for gathering and verifying evidence about what the voters did, in aggregate. We should all be working to create systems that we can all trust. The Iowa failures are embarrassing and inconvenient, but not a threat to democracy. 6/6

    This is why it's critical that secret-ballot elections use the resilient approach of hand-marked paper ballots with a randomized risk-limiting audit after the election. Imagine if a buggy app were used to collect individual secret ballots--disaster. 4/6

    Some perspective on the Iowa vote tabulation app: This is far from the worst that could have happened. Results will be tabulated correctly, if a bit more slowly than news junkies preferred. The key to securing elections is resilience. 1/6

  16. Wait. are releasing the results of to media first, then disclosing on their website? Why does 2020 feel like it’s 2000?

    My warnings about this technology were ignored, and the result is chaos and a loss of confidence in our elections. Unless states step back from using unproven technologies in our elections this will keep happening.

    The whistleblower’s account has been repeatedly confirmed by witnesses with firsthand information. Intimidation only serves to deter future whistleblowers and increase risk to this one--without whom the President’s illegal scheme may have remained covered up to this day.

    The good news from the is that there are paper records marked by hand to confirm results. But the problems w: the app undermined voter confidence & are hopefully a learning moment. We must minimize unnecessary use of electronics in elections.
