​​🇺🇸 Special Webster Talks lecture on the American political System and 2020 elections

With the US presidential election coming up on November 2, some of you may be wondering how to interpret the discussions surrounding this important political event, which will impact not only for the US, but the entire world. Dr. Slobodan Pesic will talk about American Federalism - or, other words, the US political system.

🔹 October 29 at 6 PM
🔹 Via Zoom - join using this link

❓ For example, do you know if Americans elect their presidents directly?

👉 Here is the short answer to the question above - the long answer will be given by the Vice-Rector during the open lecture!

📨 Voters will select presidential electors who, in turn, will vote on December 14, 2020, to either elect a new president and vice president or reelect the incumbents Donald Trump and Mike Pence, respectively. The series of presidential primary elections and caucuses were held from February to August 2020. This nominating process is an indirect election, where voters cast ballots selecting a slate of delegates to a political party's nominating convention, who then, in turn, elect their parties' nominees for president and vice president.
