Shownotes

In this episode of Randy Unscripted, Randy explores Veritasium’s video “Why Democracy Is Mathematically Impossible” (YouTube link) and breaks down how voting systems, no matter how well designed, can’t be perfectly fair. He reflects on what this means for democracy in the United States, where each state controls its own elections — making any national shift to systems like ranked-choice voting nearly impossible. It’s a thought-provoking look at how math, structure, and human nature all intersect in the democratic process.
