How the Election Is Actually Rigged

On the Media | Oct 21, 2016

Dead people don't vote. People don't vote twice. Undocumented immigrants are not trucked in to flood polling stations. So, is the election rigged? Yes. But not because of voter fraud. Because of gerrymandering.

David Daley is publisher of the Connecticut Mirror and author of the new book, "Ratf**ked: The True Story Behind the Secret Plan to Steal America's Democracy." He talks to Bob about the political dark art of gerrymandering and how Republican strategists used the election of 2010 to distort congressional districts -- and democracy -- for a decade or more.
