Last week, @bakerinstitute.bsky.social and @cartercenter.bsky.social co-hosted their annual elections conference bringing together experts and Task Force members — including David Carroll, Tammy Patrick, and Ben Ginsberg — to discuss democracy and the rule of law. www.youtube.com/watch?v=8lJh...

During the conference, David M. Satterfield, director of the Baker Institute, sat down with Ben Ginsberg, one of the nation’s leading election-law experts, for a wide-ranging conversation on the legacy of Bush v. Gore and what it still teaches us about protecting our democracy.

Ginsberg reflected on how close, contested races test public confidence in the election process itself. He emphasized both the strength of U.S. election infrastructure and the importance of transparency and engagement from the public.
