ABOUT THIS BLOG

I shall post videos, graphs, news stories, and other material there. We shall use some of this material in class, and you may review the rest at your convenience. You will all receive invitations to post to the blog. (Please let me know if you do not get such an invitation.) I encourage you to use the blog in these ways:
To post questions or comments about the readings before we discuss them in class;

COVID and Elections

With President Trump mentioning that he believes COVID-19 may last into late summer and members of congress falling ill, it is becoming increasingly likely that the national conventions will need to be rethought. I thought this article (NBC) gave an interesting account of the ramifications for changing the national convention, especially regarding fundraising. How is this pandemic going to challenge the integrity of our next presidential election?

Also, I enjoyed this podcast by Politico that discussed the election and COVID.
