Countdown To America’s Presidential Election

The US Presidential Elections are fast approaching. On 5 November Americans will go to the polls.

With a month to go, what can we expect?

What were the critical turning points in each campaign?

What are the polls showing?

Will domestic challenges rather than global disruptions be a key consideration?

How will voters factor the assassination attempt on former president Trump or his conviction of falsifying business records?

Is this election a choice based on the least worst option?

Are the running mates a consideration in the vote?

If Mr Trump loses, will his supporters try to overturn the result?

Will turmoil ensue?

We are privileged that the very generous Professor Dr David Rosenbloom from Boston has again agreed to join us to bring his perceptive assessment of these issues and much more.

David Rosenbloom, PhD is currently Professor of Health Law, Policy and Management at the Boston University School of Public Health. He has been a student and participant in US politics for more than 50 years. He holds a PhD in Political Science from MIT where his work led to publication of The Election Men (Quadrangle Press, 1972), the first major book about the emergence of a professional campaign management industry in the US. He has helped lead voter registration and get out the vote activities in Presidential and other level campaigns since 1968.
