The interview with Rick Hasen, an election law expert, centers on potential threats to the integrity of the 2026 elections.

Hasen argues that claims of widespread voter fraud are unfounded, citing minimal cases of non-citizen voting compared to the significant disenfranchisement caused by restrictive voting laws.

Hasen advocates for a constitutional amendment guaranteeing the right to vote to safeguard American democracy against potential interference.
