In the latter half, founder of Black Box Voting, an investigative reporting and public education organization for elections, Bev Harris, talked about voting issues related to the presidential primaries, and past elections. At the 2016 Iowa caucus, the Democrats have been refusing requests for transparency, and the Des Moines Register called the Democratic caucus the "equivalent to a smoke-filled backroom," she reported. Looking toward the primary in New Hampshire, the state's voting process is less transparent than Iowa, with final results tabulated by a single person onto an Excel spreadsheet that no one is allowed to watch, Harris revealed.

South Carolina, which uses a completely paperless touchscreen that sends results to a company in Tampa for counting, also has a troubled history when it comes to elections, she cited. The state "is so under the thumb of political party bosses in the most invisible way possible...What I expect to see in South Carolina is that the candidates who are not favored with their state political parties will be dropped down considerably," she remarked. Curiously, she noted that when Internet or smart phone voting has been tried out such as in Hawaii-- rather than increasing the number of voters as would be expected, participation actually goes down.
