Reece Ellis leads fascination Election Wrap-up for Civitas students -- moments after the election was called
Just ten minutes after the 2020 presidential election was called for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, Civitas staffer Reece Ellis began his election wrap-up presentation with a PowerPoint that reflected the confirmation of the victory. Reece took current Civitas students as well as alumni on a guided tour of national trends, state trends, demographic trends. He then drilled down to local races and provided particular explanations for why key elections in Missouri turned out as they did.
While there are still several states in which results have not yet been called, Reece’s presentation provides the overall insight that explains so much of what happened in this year’s presidential election. Mega-thanks to Reece. You can see his PowerPoint by clicking here.
