A Pivotal Time for Democracy: Misinformation, Governmental Legitimacy, and Faith in Democracy in the 2024 Elections.

A storm gathers over the US capitol building.

The 2024 elections portend some of the most significant challenges facing democracy today. Misinformation, disinformation, civic engagement and participation, governmental legitimacy, and faith in democracy as a political process are all elements that will be tested by the outcomes of the 2024 elections.
