Voting is fundamental to democracy, but American trust in “one person, one vote” has been compromised in recent years by Electoral College outcomes, allegations of voter suppression and voter fraud, and gerrymandering of congressional district boundaries. Integral to that conversation, of course, is the impeachment inquiry.

As the 10th installment of the American Voter Project, the Eric H. Holder Jr. Initiative invites you to join us for a panel discussion on the impeachment inquiry.
