Around the World in 73 Elections
We鈥檙e halfway through the year, and over 2 billion ballots have been cast.
Today, we look at some of the elections that are taking place around the globe in 2024!
6 months after they discussed the future of democracy in 2024, Adam reunites with political scientist Ben Ansell for an update on the elections taking place this year. They discuss the US election; why the Democrats chose to make their campaign all about democracy, and how unprecedented events have changed the US political landscape.
They also chat about what we can learn from election results in the UK, France and India. And which elections should we focus on later in the year?
