Instructor: Josh Clinton

Have questions about what happened in the 2020 elections and what it might mean for the future? This class may be for you. Vanderbilt Professor of Political Science, Senior Election Analyst for NBC News, and USN parent JOSH CLINTON will talk politics from a data-driven perspective -- looking at trends, polls, results, and whatever else is of general interest. After providing an overview of what just happened in the 2020 election and polls, the discussion will turn to what it might mean for the next four years, and even 2024. The class will then cover "Election Week 2020" and what it was like to be "trapped" in the Decision Desk at NBC trying to project the election as states dealt with the task of conducting an election during the midst of a pandemic. Other important topics students can look forward to include vote-by-mail, the Electoral College, election fraud, and why every state does its own thing come Election Day. There are way too many important topics to be able to cover in a session (or even a year long class) so look forward to a lively "happy hour conversation" (as much as is possible, given the limitations of Zoom). Supply your own beverage(s), happiness, sit back and enjoy.
