Alliance/Members Meeting – Facilitated Discussion: Trustworthy Elections Discussion: What will it take?
June 25 @ 6:00 pm - 8:30 pm CDT
* Local Focus: Twin Cities metro
Note: We’ll gather at 6 p.m. to socialize and have something to eat if you want and start the discussion at 6:45 p.m.
What will it take for our country to have trustworthy elections? Conservatives and liberals distrust our elections for vastly different reasons—from voter fraud and election security to voter suppression and peaceful transfer of power.
It would be helpful to read the two-page summary of the Braver Angels Trustworthy Elections report beforehand that could provide a blueprint for restoring trust in our elections. Available at http://braverangels.org/trustworthy-elections/. Isn’t that what we all want?
A national cross-party Braver Angels committee found 727 unanimous points of agreement across values, concerns, and solutions, distilled to 23 solutions from 26 Trustworthy Election workshops with 194 evenly balanced Red and Blue participants. Some very interesting ideas and agreements emerged!
We’ll discuss our reactions, ideas and actions we can take. If you don’t have a chance to read the report or summary first, please join us anyway. We’d love to have a robust discussion.
** This event is open to the media upon approval. Media contact: Ciaran O’Connor, ciaran@braverangels.org
