Pandemic at the Polls: Election Integrity and Covid-19

To join the townhall please RSVP.

Wisconsin was the first U.S. state to hold in-person elections at the height of the Covid-19 pandemic. Balancing the integrity of elections with the health and safety of voters is a challenge facing governments and their citizens around the world.

The UWM Institute of World Affairs is pleased to host a virtual town hall discussion exploring how crises like the current pandemic can threaten democracy both here and abroad. Sarah Repucci, the Vice President of Freedom House will be the featured presenter.
