A truly representative democracy is one that fully reflects the nation’s population. But voter turnout in U.S. elections has been anything but representative, particularly for people of color and other often marginalized voting groups. CID will explore the entrenchment of voter turnout disparities in the U.S. and the challenges ahead at a democracy summit on January 29 in Washington, DC.
The Building an Inclusive Democracy: Why Equitable Voter Turnout Matters in the 2024 Elections and Beyond conference, hosted by Dr. Mindy Romero, will feature panels of national and community experts discussing the state of voter turnout in the U.S, and the challenges and opportunities for the 2024 elections and beyond.
Sponsored by Democracy Fund, the event will be held at the new USC Washington D.C. Campus (Dupont Circle) building. Seating will be limited, so early reservations are recommended.
Speakers to be announced soon.
