What if we could combine the best out of ancient direct democracy and modern delegative democracy? Where you can vote for representatives in regular elections but override their votes on any specific topic when you disagree with your representative?

This is something that David Ernst, CEO of Secure Internet Voting, Liquid Democracy Technologies, and Secure ID, set out as a mission to build. By building a modern technological platform his company is enabling states to integrate liquid democracy solutions into their already existing democratic systems.

You’ll learn:

• What liquid democracy is
• The role of blockchain in a liquid democracy voting system
• How liquid democracy could change the political landscape
• How the role of politicians could change in a liquid democracy system

David has spent a decade building empowering software across many fields, including social coordination, cryptography, finance, education, and more. He ran for the California Statehouse in 2018 as one of more than a dozen digital democracy candidates.
