Is American democracy broken?
b"It\\u2019s been an eventful week following the U.S presidential election, as we continue to await the final results. From Trump\\u2019s demands to stop the vote count, to the lawsuits contesting ballots in several states, one key theme that\\u2019s emerged is that America\\u2019s democratic system is being tested.\\n\\nThis is an issue that Lawrence Lessig has been studying for a long time. He\\u2019s the author of \\u201cAmerica, Compromised\\u201d and \\u201cThey Don't Represent Us: Reclaiming Our Democracy\\u201d, and the founder of Equal Citizens, a non-profit dedicated to democratic reform. He joined host Jayme Poisson to reflect on what the 2020 election says about the state of democracy in the U.S."
