Idaho's Radical Election Transparency with Trent Tripple

Trent Tripple is the Ada County Clerk and invited me into the new Ada County Election office. The building is now transparent, like literally. You can see from the parking lot all the way to the back wall of the elections area. There are also over 3 dozen cameras live streaming the happening of the elections counting, storing, and monitoring systems. You can tour in person or just checkout the live streams to see not only your tax dollars at work but the US democracy in full effect. On top of the physical infrastructure, the system Trent has in place to maintain the integrity of every single ballot is amazing. Enjoy!

The Ranch Podcast is the premier source for long format interviews and information in the Treasure Valley and great state of Idaho. The Boise area is home to many counties and ways of life. It’s also home to many law enforcement agencies, like Ada County and Canyon county Sheriff offices, Idaho State Police, Eagle Police Department, Meridian Police Department, and many more. The school systems in the area are also quite diverse. Boise school district and West Ada School District, though right next to each other, are quite different. Ada County is also home to our state capital and many of our elected officials. 

The Ranch Podcast is shot just north of Eagle, Idaho.
