After hearing some background on how artist and former election lawyer Eve Jacobs-Carnahan created the Knit Democracy Together project, we’ll dive into the process of counting ballots. Eve will demystify the electoral process as she explains the stages of counting ballots, machine tabulation of paper ballots, and the role of certification boards. She will explain the operation of electoral college and describe the how the National Popular Vote compact would work.

During the presentation, you’ll be able to stitch pieces of a collaborative banner about democracy!
