2020 Election Analysis

2020 Election Analysis University of Minnesota Associate Professor of Sociology Kathyrn Pearson Download Several days after the November 3rd elections, the AP and other major news outlets called the presidential race for Joe Biden and his running mate Kamala Harris.

Control of the US Senate remains in question pending the results of a runoff election in Georgia in early January.
