Please join the Caltech 2024 Election Integrity Project for the latest installment of Office Hours, a webinar moderated by R. Michael Alvarez, PhD, Flintridge Foundation Professor of Political and Computational Social Science at Caltech and Co-Director, Linde Center for Science, Society, and Policy (LCSSP). This will be a very special post-Election Day episode of Office Hours where Professor Alvarez will sit down with his fellow Caltech/MIT Voting Technology Project (VTP) Co-Director, Charles Stewart, III, PhD, to dissect and discuss what happened on Election Day – and more importantly – what happens next! Professor Stewart is an established leader in the analysis of the performance of election systems and the quantitative assessment of election performance. He is the Kenan Sahin Distinguished Professor of Political Science at MIT and Founder and Director of the MIT Election Data and Science Lab (MEDSL). MEDSL, established in 2017, applies scientific principles to how elections are studied and administered. In 2020, Professor Stewart partnered with Professor Nate Persily of the Stanford Law School to establish the Stanford-MIT Healthy Elections Project. Working with the Pew Charitable Trusts, he also helped with the development of Pew’s Elections Performance Index. When: November 6, 11am Pacific. Where: Online
