<p>Voting is fundamental to democracy, but American trust in “one person, one vote” has been compromised in recent years by Electoral College outcomes, allegations of voter suppression and voter fraud, and gerrymandering of congressional district boundaries. Integral to that conversation is the role of the United States Supreme Court. For this installment of the American Voter Project series, the <strong>Eric H. Holder Jr. Initiative</strong> <strong>for Civil and Political Rights</strong> invites you to join us for a panel discussion on the federal judiciary and the pressing issues that lie ahead.</p>
