Why We Vote Ep. 144: Venezuelan Testimony, Georgia Hearings, and Election Integrity on Trial

CannCon and Ashe in America tackle a packed night of testimony and hearings, starting with a Venezuelan whistleblower’s deposition in Tina Peters’ habeas case. The witness details how Smartmatic systems were manipulated in Venezuela, exposing vulnerabilities and foreign influence that echo into U.S. elections. The hosts connect this testimony to Garland Favorito’s explosive appearance before Georgia legislators, where he outlined systemic flaws in Dominion’s Democracy Suite, internet connectivity, and even proof of hacked county servers. Ashe and CannCon react in real time to the evidence, the gaslighting pushback from officials, and the broader implications for election security. From court cases and subpoenas to grassroots activism and polls that miss the real story, this episode puts the spotlight on truth, transparency, and the ongoing fight for election integrity.
