Leading Elections Expert to Discuss 2020 During Free SMU Webinar
Written by John Packard
October 27, 2020
Tomorrow (Wednesday, October 28th) we will host one of our free SMU Community Chat Webinars with Dr. David Schultz, Distinguished Professor of Political Science & Legal Studies at Hamline University. Dr. Schultz is an elections expert, and he has some interesting observations from an academic (as opposed to partisan political) perspective regarding this year’s election.

Over the course of 30 minutes he will break down the election, what states to watch, what counties within a few of those states that may determine this election, he will comment on what one state could be an early determinator for President Trump (one that is on the edge and he cannot lose), a prognostication for the Senate and he will have some interesting comments for those of you who are concerned about the partisan divide and when (and why) that may change.
Come join us at 11 AM ET as we look at the political landscape from an academic, non-partisan point of view. Steel Market Update president & CEO, John Packard will also be making some comments about what is a very interesting steel market.
