Hines On Air Podcast

In this episode of Hines On Air, Matt Hines sits down with entrepreneur Tom Joseph to discuss one of the biggest challenges facing American democracy: money in politics. They explore whether technology can create fairer elections, reduce the influence of Super PACs, and give voters—not special interests—the power to choose their representatives.
 
Tom explains the vision behind America's Main Street Party, the Wilson's Fountain initiative, and a new election app designed to help voters discover candidates based on issues rather than campaign spending. The conversation covers campaign finance, political corruption, gerrymandering, mobile voting, blockchain voting, and whether technology can restore trust in democracy.
 
If you're interested in U.S. politics, election reform, campaign finance, voting technology, democracy, or political innovation, this episode offers a thought-provoking discussion on the future of elections.
