Democracy and Risks to the 2024 Elections

Sep 17, 2024

Co-presented with the Safeguarding Democracy Project at UCLA Law

Can the United States conduct a free and fair election in November in which the public will have confidence? Are concerns about foreign interference, deep fakes, and disinformation serious or overblown? Is participation equally open to minority voters? What are the risks to U.S. democracy if significant portions of the public do not accept the election results as legitimate?

Moderated by Rick Hasen, UCLA Law. Panelists: Leah Aden, NAACP Legal Defense and Education Fund; John Fortier, American Enterprise Institute; Justin Levitt, Loyola Law School, Los Angeles; Yoel Roth, The Match Group.

Hammer Forums are made possible by the Rosenbloom Family.
