Today's guest hosts are Brent J. Cohen and Charlotte Hancock, Executive Director and Communications Director for Generation Progress.
During today's episode, they highlight how we are only 20 days away from Election Day 2020, which will be the last day for voters to cast a ballot in this election. In a year that has been dominated by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, it should not come as a surprise that this election night may unfold a little differently than past ones. The timeline for certifying election results in particular is looking like it will be significantly longer than in past elections, which for Americans who are used to knowing the outcome of Presidential elections in particular by the end of election night, could leave us vulnerable to the spread of misinformation.
To help Brent and Charlotte break down what to expect from election night 2020, and the ensuing process of counting and certifying ballots, they’re joined by two guests from the Center for American Progress.
They are Danielle Root, the Associate Director of Voting Rights and Access to Justice, and Erin Simpson, the Associate Director of Technology Policy.
