Baruch College School of Public Affairs

17 Lexington Avenue (at 23^rd Street)

Room 307

Baruch College, School of Public Affairs professors Douglas Muzzio and David Birdsell will discuss ballot challenges in the presidential campaign of 2000. When is a candidate obligated to mount a challenge in the event of a tight, contested vote count? When has a candidate pushed the system too far? Are there easy ways for the electorate to recognize the difference between self-interest and public interest?

Doug Muzzio is an expert on American national elections and public opinion and is a political analyst for WABC-TV, New York. David Birdsell is a specialist in campaign communication and provides election commentary for Fox News Channel, MSNBC, Reuters, and other news organizations.
