Shownotes Transcript

In this episode of Life Matters, Brian Johnston interviews international political expert Dr. Steven Mosher, president of Population Research Institute.

They discuss the present dilemma of media organizations proclaiming election returns long before an official tally has been certified.

They also discuss a recent phenomenon in this election year, the widespread and broad distribution of unregulated and unaccounted for ballots. This is substantially different from the regular process of absentee voting. In an absentee ballot a registered and legally authorized voter specifically asked for and receives their personal ballot, and returns the same documented and verifiable personal ballot to vote.

Without documentation and accountability of ballots coupled with the new widespread “ballot harvesting procedures“, the possibility and temptation of voter fraud is very, very great, because the ability to double-check and determine fraudulent ballots has been removed from the process.

Dr. Mosher and Brian discuss the current situation, and aspects of the Covid crisis that have contributed to it. Dr. Mosher will return to discuss the nature of Covid, its mysterious origins in China, and what we should do about that in our next program.

Brian also introduces a new sponsor for Life Matters, Winged Spur Coffee. Winged Spur was founded by returned missionaries who discovered some extraordinary single-origin coffees in their travels. The company now roasts these exotic coffees on demand and fly them directly to your home on request - the richest and freshest coffees available.
