US Election Unplugged
by SBS
The 2024 United States Presidential Election has been unlike any other. With one candidate claiming he should have won the last election, and the other candidate stepping in after the incumbent President withdrew from the race, it's been nothing if not unusual. One candidate is a convicted felon, while the other is hoping to be the first black woman President. The campaigning has been brutal. And the stakes are higher than they've ever been. Sam Dover and Deborah Groarke examine the personalities, the policies, the politics and the process
