AUDIO: Diebold Whistleblower Stephen Heller on the Peter B. Collins Show

Share article:

As I’ve been on the road this week, Steve Heller (a.k.a. the “Diebold Document Whistleblower”) was kind enough to step in for me during my regular Friday guest stint on the Peter B. Collins Show.

While it’s perhaps a bit of a busman’s vacation, I made the mistake of quickly checking out the podcast of yesterday’s hour from my motel room after I got off the road last night, and though I’ve heard (and even told [PDF]) Heller’s remarkable and heroic story a million times, I couldn’t stop listening to the interview. Heller — who, in addition to putting his life on the line for fair elections, is also now a colleague of mine, helping to head up our Velvet Revolution Election Strike Force — is a helluva gifted and articulate spokesman on the issues of Election Integrity.

Feel free to listen up. You’ll not regret the time well-spent. Download the MP3, or listen online below (about 40 mins, w/ commercials removed courtesy of PBC affiliate Green960)…

    Any statement Mr. Heller makes carries the weight of his meritorious and unequaled commitment to voting integrity. In a sane country, everybody would know his name, but sadly, America barley knows who Beverly Harris is after all these years.

    If you’d like to read an extremely silly article about paper ballots, (not that you haven’t seen hundreds by now), go here. That somebody this ignorant is allowed to do editorials for one of my home town’s papers is very embarrassing to me.

    Was that really you in the comments section Steve?

    Oh. My. God. Steve! I just listened to that. Gorgeous! That was perfect radio. You should be sitting across from Bill Moyers at the very least. Oh. My. God.

    I mean, I already was supremely thankful for you, tried to think of you when feeling too demoralized about my fellow citizens, but yer starting to make me wish you weren’t too young for me now. Oh. My. God.
