Redesigning our Democracy – an IMD Event at Wellesley College

On December 5, we are excited to present “Redesigning our Democracy: A Quantitative Approach,” an series of short talks delivered by current fellows of the Institute for Mathematics and Democracy. There will be ample time for discussion. Together, we will engage quantitatively with mechanisms of our democracy, from the Electoral College to gerrymandering, and discuss how these mechanisms should be redesigned to serve us better.

Join us in the Pendleton East Atrium on 12/05 at 6:00 pm, exactly one month after the election. The event will be recorded and released on YouTube.

The fellows’ talks will be as follows:

Winnie Zhou – Ranked choice voting
Leah Valentiner – Primary elections
Cianna Salvatora – Gerrymandering
Presha Goel – Proportional representation
Arial Brookhart – Electoral College
