For the final episode of the series, Ben goes back to basics and asks: how can democracies hold free and fair elections? It’s not as simple as setting up polling stations and handing out ballot boxes, so what does it take to create a truly even electoral playing field?
Guests:
- Robin Forestier-Walker, Freelance journalist, based in Georgia
- Tanja Hollstein, Head of Practice (Elections) at the Westminster Foundation for Democracy
- Pippa Norris, McGuire Lecturer in Comparative Politics at the Harvard Kennedy School at Harvard University.
