A proposito di questo titolo

With the presidential election right around the corner, it seems like everyone is competing for our votes. But with all kinds of state and local districting, the electoral college, claims of gerrymandering, and a focus on swing states, it's confusing to know how votes are counted -- and how much our own vote really matters. What are voting districts and does it matter which districts I'm in? What is gerrymandering and is it bad? What’s the real deal with voter fraud and suppression? Who makes the decisions about districting and voting access?

Our guest expert, Dr. Elaine Kamarck (Director of the Center for Effective Public Management at the Brookings Institute) covers the basics in a short, jargon-free fireside chat with host Laur Hesse Fisher, plus answers questions from the curious folks who attended the event live.
