Lincoln Network: Preparing for a Close and Contested Election: A Conversation with National Experts
Channel: Foundation for American Innovation
Date: 2020-10-28

This year's election is gearing up to be one of the most contentious in American history. Short of a landslide for either candidate, a large percentage of the country may see the result as illegitimate if their side doesn’t win.

Holding a safe and secure election in 2020 will involve significant challenges: the COVID-19 pandemic, allegations of election fraud, and foreign adversaries’ disinformation campaigns to undermine confidence in the democratic process. Americans have a civic responsibility to be informed and do their part to defend the integrity of the 2020 election. 

Join Lincoln Network at 2pm ET on Tuesday, October 27th for a virtual panel discussion about these challenges and what to expect in November hosted by The Hill’s Saagar Enjeti and featuring national election experts:
