“Future Thinkers is a podcast about the future of humankind and the exploration of consciousness.”

Follow My Vote is featured in the number 10 spot in the industry list alongside Democracy Earth. The voting industry section begins at 4:55 in the video. 

“Blockchain technology can be used for voter registration and identity verification, and electronic vote counting to ensure that only legitimate votes are counted, and no votes are changed or removed. Creating an immutable, publicly-viewable ledger of recorded votes would be a massive step toward making elections more fair and democratic. Democracy Earth and Follow My Vote are two startups aiming to disrupt democracy itself through creating blockchain-based online voting systems for governments.”

Predicting Our Future is a new podcast about the next revolutions in technology. 

Ernest appeared on EPISODE 9: DISINTERESTED VOTERS & 500,000 ELECTED OFFICIALS.

Listen to the whole episode or skip to 20:15 to hear Ernest explain and discuss using blockchain technology to build open source, end-to-end verifiable voting software:

“In the United States, there are over 500,000 elected officials. In the overwhelming majority of elections, less than half of eligible voters participate, resulting in one of the lowest levels of voter engagement of any Western democracy. In this episode, Andrews asks and tries to answer: What can be done to increase turnout for elections conducted every year in the U.S.? Can the security risks of implementing online voting be overcome? If online voting did become available in the United States, what might it look like? Which companies would be the winners?”

Episode 9 is one of three different episodes covering the issues facing the future of elections. Check them out on predictingourfuture.com:

Episode 7: Can Online Voting Defeat The Broken Electoral College?
Episode 8: Hacking Elections, DDoS Attacks, & Online Voting Around the World

We would like to thank Sack Heads Radio for featuring Adam Ernest and Follow My Vote on the air.
