What To Expect When You're Expecting an Unprecedented Election

Uncertainty surrounds the 2020 presidential election. Virulent partisanship, rapid-fire changes to election administration, and last-minute court rulings all risk undermining public confidence in election results. But the big day is within sight. What should voters expect to see on November 3? How long will it really take to get results from states, and what challenges might we see with counting and reporting?

In BPC’s final event in the runup to Election Day, join us on Thursday, October 29, at 2 p.m. ET to hear from a panel of elections experts on what they expect to see on November 3 and beyond.
