This event will provide a tour of the Electoral College, pressing further than its general mandate in the constitution to the statutes and regulations that dictate how it actually works in practice. In the process, it will provide a window into the issues that could bedevil the November 3 election: What if a state’s governor and legislature disagree about who has won the election? What if legal challenges prevent a state from selecting delegates to the Electoral College before the College meets to cast its votes? Which legal forums are appropriate for resolving disputes concerning delegates to the College?
