Consider This: Trust and Political Institutions

Doors 6pm | All Ages | Bar w/ ID | Tickets Sliding Scale $15-30
Join Oregon Humanities for a conversation about trust, elections, and our political systems and culture with Paul Gronke, director of the Elections & Voting Information Center at Reed College, and Susheela Jayapal, a former Multnomah County Commissioner and current fellow with the North Star Civic Foundation.
Polling of voters in the US shows that confidence in elections and political institutions has fallen over the past two years. In this onstage conversation, moderated by Adam Davis, we'll dig into the factors that affect the public's faith in our democracy and how that declining trust shapes how we vote and how we govern ourselves.
This event is part of Oregon Humanities’ 2026–26 Consider This series, “What Do We Trust?"
