Michael Wagner is a professor professor in UW-Madison’s School of Journalism and Mass Communication.

If you aren’t worried about the health of our democracy, you haven’t been paying attention. Donald Trump appears determined to undermine the integrity of our election system every chance he gets. Top Republican leaders have been silent about these threats; others have abetted the president. On the bright side, so far the court system has rejected the Trump campaign’s lies about fraud and election officials at the state and local level have mostly stood strong as well. Hear what UW experts have to say on the topic at this Crossroads of Ideas series webinar. Featured speakers include Barry Burden, Franciska Coleman, Kathy Cramer, Lew Friedland, Manuel Teodoro and Michael Wagner (pictured), who will moderate.
