SUMMARY:Road to Election: The Pulse of the Nation after Iowa and New Hampshire
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The 2024 U.S. election will significantly shape the transatlantic political environment and policy landscape. The results of this monumental election will have serious implications for the future of the United States\, but also for the transatlantic relationship. Transatlantic organizations play an integral role in convening thought leaders\, bringing a transatlantic perspective to U.S. and European domestic policy discussions\, and influencing public discourse on both sides of the Atlantic. This will be particularly important in 2024\, which is why the American Council on Germany is pleased to partner with over 20 other transatlantic organizations and political foundations on the “Road to Election 2024” virtual event series. \nRunning from January 2024 to January 2025\, the virtual event series will host in-depth discussions and foster a vibrant exchange of ideas in the lead-up to the pivotal 2024 U.S. election. The aim of the series is multifold: to inform\, to engage in dynamic dialogues\, and to champion democratic values by presenting diverse perspectives. The initiative’s events will feature prominent researchers\, policymakers\, commentators\, and civil society representatives\, exploring diverse formats and a wide array of topics. From public polling and media impact to electoral demographics\, the future of U.S. democracy\, and pressing policy issues like trade and immigration\, the “Road to Election” series aims to offer comprehensive insights for audiences in both the United States and Germany. \nJoin us on January 25 at 11:00 am ET as we kick off this series with a virtual discussion featuring two expert political advisors\, Matt Gorman\, Vice President of Target Victory\, and Margie Omero\, Principal at the Democratic polling firm GBAO\, and moderated by Juliane Schäuble\, U.S. Correspondent for der Tagesspiegel.[/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”Register Here” style=”classic” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fus02web.zoom.us%2Fwebinar%2Fregister%2F4717059329289%2FWN_F_WzoI2SRSaa0rYTHnRc4A” css=”.vc_custom_1705932992141{background-color: #1e73be !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}”][vc_column_text]Matt Gorman has advised presidential candidates\, members of Congress\, and Fortune 50 companies on communications and messaging.
