Podcast | The day after the US elections: What's the fallout?

Published: Nov. 5, 2020, 12:50 p.m.

This podcast is a recording of a webinar that took place on 4 November 2020, the day after the US presidential elections. A dispute over the results looks likely following polling day. We discuss whether such a disagreement will evolve into a broader crisis, and to what effect. And we will identify states that will be central to any subsequent legal challenges. 

We provide assessments of where protests after the polls are most likely to take place, as well as where the potential for civil disquiet and extremist violence is highest. This will draw on our monitoring of activist and extremist channels online.
