We were fortunate to be given a presentation on the forthcoming mid-term elections by Jeff Karp, who is the University’s Senior Lecturer in Electoral Politics.
Jeff kindly volunteered to fill a spot vacated by Labour leadership contender John McDonnell, who sent his apologies for his absence due to an urgent constituency matter, and gave us a riveting talk on the history of mid-term elections, the races to watch and the prospects for the future.
We hope to put Jeff’s presentation on the website for everyone to view shortly. In the meantime, there are several websites where you could read about the mid-terms. All the latest opinion polls are available at Pollster.com, whilst the New York Times has the best commentary and a clickable electoral map. For a more quirky look at the elections, you could check out Daily Kos or Politics1.com.
