US Elections: What is at Stake?
On 5 November 2024, US voters will head to the polls to elect a new president. These elections will shape the future of American democracy and influence global relations.
As part of the 2024 global super-cycle elections, during which 60 countries will have held national elections, the outcomes of the US elections will have far-reaching implications for both the domestic and international democracy landscapes.
This event will offer a comprehensive discussion, placing the US elections within a broader global context. With insights from International IDEA’s comparative data and analysis, our panel of experts will explore the current state of US democracy, emerging global democratic trends and the significant geopolitical stakes involved.
