In the week before Election Day, this symposium will explore whether our electoral system is ready. The 2020 election revealed weaknesses in our procedures, which led to the Electoral Count Reform Act. That, plus beefed up Departments of Justice and Homeland Security, promise a secure election. But threats to voting and certification of results as well as foreign interference and extensive litigation loom over our 60th presidential campaign. Our experts will address whether our laws and norms will hold or if we will see a repeat of January 6th.
