When: Wednesday, November 9, 2016, 2:00 — 3:30 p.m.
Where: The Brookings Institution, Falk Auditorium, 1775 Massachusetts Ave, NW, Washington, DC
What:
By Wednesday, November 9, one of the most contentious presidential elections in modern American history will be over. Americans will know the identity of their next president and will likely know which party has a majority in the House and the Senate. But the divisions so evident during this unprecedented campaign will not quickly disappear. Will this election mark a significant turning point in the tone and tenor of American politics? What can the campaign and its results tell us about the governing challenges that will face America over the next four years?
The Brookings Institution will convene a panel of experts to address these questions on November 9, the day after this historic election. Panelists will review the results of the race, the factors that produced that outcome, and the implications for domestic and foreign policy, the economy, and the future of America’s electoral system.
After a moderated discussion, panelists will respond to audience questions. This event will be webcast live as part of the Brookings Election 2016 and America’s Future project. Those watching online are invited to submit questions using the hashtag #AfterTheVote.
