Columbus Metropolitan Club - 1-11-2023 - Democracy 2033 - The Future of Democracy

We started our Democracy in Crisis series looking at America's long history of polarization. We continue it by trying to look into the future. Given our current trends what does America look like in ten years? Will we come together, or will we continue on our polarized paths? Will we split into new political parties? How will shifting demographics change voter loyalties and effect the fortunes of politicians and the diversity of candidates?

Featuring Kyle Kondik, Managing Editor, Sabato's Crystal Ball, and Director of Communications, University of Virginia Center for Politics, and Catherine Turcer, Executive Director, Common Cause Ohio, with host Mike Thompson, Chief Content Director, News and Public Affairs, WOSU Public Media.
