Join us for an insightful talk on the legal aspects of elections, focusing on the crucial procedures and challenges that can unfold between the commencement of elections, the announcement of election results, and the formal certification of electoral votes. Duke alumnus Barry Berke, a trial lawyer with extensive experience in presidential elections, will explore the legal complexities and potential areas of contention that can arise during this critical period and were concerns leading up to the recent election. He will also examine how election disputes and legal challenges have evolved over time, providing a historical perspective on the shifting concerns and processes. Don’t miss this opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of the intricacies that shape our electoral system and its future – and the implications for public policy.
