ELECTIONS HAVE CONSEQUENCES: 2016 & 2018 CONTESTS IN PERSPECTIVE

Dr. Robert Dion & Dr. Matthew Hanka, Political Science Professors at UE & USI, respectively, will present their analysis and answer your questions. Among the questions we will ask are:

• What might the 2018 election results say about the electorate’s view of President Trump’s performance?

• What does the election indicate about Trump’s takeover of the Republican Party?

• Why haven’t more Republicans spoken out against Trump’s false statements, disregard for the environment, emoluments, etc?

• Should lying about extramarital affairs be an impeachable offens?

• What is a “Blue Wave”? Did we see one in 2018?

• What might the 2018 election foretell for 2020?

• What are the implications at the state and local levels of government?

  Come prepared for lively discussion!
