Are You A Lawyer Worried About Election Results? You're Not The Only One.

Join one of the nation’s leading experts on constitutional law for a primer on next steps to take after the election.

Who will win the election? Will Joe Biden move from VP to President? Will Donald Trump join the two-term club? Will all the votes be counted? Will we receive a final result tonight? Tomorrow? Next week? Next month? Will this election be heading to the Supreme Court? Will there be a peaceful transition of power, should the Trump lose? There are so many troubling questions, but almost no clear answers.

While we’re sitting on pins and needles waiting on the likely-to-be contested results of the most consequential election of our time, there are action items lawyers can focus on that are happening tomorrow to take their minds off the stress of today.

Lawyers for Good Government, an organization whose mission is to fight for democracy, justice, and the future of our nation, will be hosting an event on the state of the election and the Constitution with Dean Erwin Chemerinsky of UC Berkeley Law on November 4 at 3 p.m. EST / 12 p.m. PST.

Chemerinsky — whose name you may remember from your Constitutional Law textbook — is one of the nation’s leading experts on constitutional law, and he will be speaking about the election results (if there are any) and the next steps lawyers can take to keep our republic on the right track.

We hope to see you there, but in the meantime, please vote if you haven’t already done so. Make your voice heard. Doing your civic duty is now more important than ever.
