After making the eye-opening discovery that the right to vote is missing from the Constitution, Emmy-winning political humorist Mo Rocca sets out on a road trip to see how voting works — and doesn’t work — in America. Mo investigates the debate over Voter ID laws and voter fraud; explores the origins and present-day impact of the Electoral College; critiques ballots with renowned designer Todd Oldham and examines the case of a former felon sentenced to ten years in prison — for the crime of voting. Described as “fascinating, fun, frightening, [and] enlightening” by NPR’s WBEZ Radio
This film is a FREE EVENT, sponsored by the League of Women Voters of the Mid-Hudson Region with a post-film discussion on the Electoral College by Prof Joel Lefkowitz of SUNY New Paltz.
