What Will the Election Outcomes Mean for You?

The 2008 elections demonstrated that voters were less motivated to elect their new President and Congress by traditional coalitions, geography or demographics — but made voting decisions based on their hopes, dreams and aspirations.

FirstView offers the political and policy related insights to help you navigate how the American public views key issues facing the incoming Obama Administration and Congress. FirstView covers not only the dynamics of the election outcome, but also the forces that are shaping the new political landscape in America which will drive public policy, legislation, and regulation for the next several years.

Two former While House pollsters conducted the most in-depth research available immediately after the election. They will be joined by Mickey Kantor and Andy Card, two high-ranking officials under the Clinton and Bush Administrations, and Josh Kurtz, Politics Editor of Roll Call, who will provide bipartisan analysis on what the election results mean for your policy agenda. The webinar will be moderated by Fleishman-Hillard Public Affairs President Paul Johnson.

Know First. Know Why.
