presentation "The Impact of COVID-19 on the US Presidential Election," Global Summit COVID-19, May 2020

At the invitation of Professor Gjyla Celiku (with whom I worked at University of Tetovo), I was honored to speak about the "Impact of COVID-19 on the U.S. Presidential Election" at a Global Zoom Summit, organized by Northern Illinois University and the International Women's Club.

Presenters included a diverse array of experts -- including speakers from the US and from throughout the Balkans.
 
In addition to speaking about the ways in which COVID-19 will impact the election and voting, the way the candidates campaign, and the political landscape in the US, Dr. McLauchlan (in response to audience questions) shared information about the Road to the White House 2020 curriculum and the New Hampshire presidential campaign internships.
