1.0 Substantive CLE Credit

As the machinery of elections operates in local, state, and national races, sometimes things go wrong. The most prominent example, of course, is the 2000 presidential election, culminating in Bush v. Gore (2000). There are a variety of cases dealing with remedial possibilities for defective elections which shed light on the subject which help form a framework for analysis. Presented by Mark C. Alexander, JD, The Arthur J. Kania Dean, Villanova University Charles Widger School of Law, this CLE will present that caselaw and framework, then discuss Bush v. Gore. The session will end with consideration of how these principles and precedents could apply in our 2020 presidential election, in unprecedented times and circumstances.

We look forward to seeing you!
