In American politics few things matter more than the final vote count on election day, but what happens when the voters start questioning whether or not the returns can be trusted?

On this edition of KCBS In Depth, fresh off a series of Super Tuesday voting mishaps, we speak with UC Irvine law professor Rick Hasen about his new book, Election Meltdown: Dirty Tricks, Distrust, and the Threat to American Democracy. Professor Hasen has long been raising alarms about the growing distrust in our election system: We discuss why that trust is so important to maintain, and what can be done to restore it.
