About this Event
AIER’s Bastiat Society program in Raleigh will host an event with Mitch Kokai.
Now that the dust has settled from the Nov. 5 election, this is a good time to evaluate the significance of voters’ selections. Not only did North Carolina’s 16 electoral votes help decide the presidential election, but the state chose a new governor for the first time in eight years. New congressional and legislative election maps promised to shake up our delegations to Washington and Raleigh. Plus voters filled a critical seat on the state’s highest court. Mitch Kokai, senior political analyst at the John Locke Foundation, analyzes these and other important elections results.
This event is free and open to the public, but please consider making a $25 donation to help sustain the chapter.
Eventbrite registration required.
