Food for Thought: The 2012 Election [Lunch Event!]
Join the UHP and Prof. John Sides, Professor of Political Science and UHP Faculty Fellow, 2012-2013 as he presents on his research over a UHP provided lunch.
Food for Thought: The Story of the 2012 Presidential Campaign (in Graphs!)
“Game changer.” We heard it so many times during the 2012 U.S. presidential election. But what actually made a difference—and what was just hype? John Sides will tell the story of the election in just a few graphs — using a “moneyball” approach that gets beyond the anecdote, folklore, and conventional wisdom that often pass for election analysis.
Tuesday, March 19th from 11:30am-12:30pm in Ames 101Q (MVC).
Seats are capped at 15, so register now!
