What Could Go Wrong in the US Election? Rick Hasen on Nightmare Scenarios and Challenges

What Could Go Wrong in the US Election? Rick Hasen on Nightmare Scenarios and Challenges

The end is nigh! With just days to go (hours, really) until voting concludes for the 2020 US election, many Americans are losing sleep over the various ways that things could go wrong on Election Day and in the days and weeks to follow (it may be time to retire that term “Election Day,” given that most states won’t finish their ballot counting on November 3rd). Ian Bremmer takes those fears head-on with election law expert Rick Hasen. They talk about how voter suppression, administrative incompetence, and/or dirty tricks by foreign actors could affect this year’s election.
