The James A. Baker III Institute for Public Policy has become one of the country’s preeminent institutions for the study of the Presidency. It is currently hosting a three-day program titled “A Presidential Election During the Time of Covid.” The full program is here.
I will be moderating a panel later today that examines the 2020 election issues through the lens of the 2000 Florida election contest, with two of the central legal figures in that saga from the Bush and Gore campaigns. That will be followed by a session that Dana Bash moderates with the campaign managers of the Obama and Romney campaigns in the 2012 election. Here is the program: .
