The Present and Future of US Politics: Whose Vote Counts?
As the United States heads into a high-stakes presidential election, this seminar series explores the structural problems and political challenges behind the headlines. We examine why American politics is so polarised and ask: what is at stake in the 2024 elections?

The seminars will open with a short presentation by an expert, followed by questions and discussion. Everyone with an interest in US politics is welcome. Lunch will be available.

Week 3: Who’s vote counts?
How have states responded to real and confected concerns about election integrity? How easy is it to vote, how are they counted and which votes matter more?
