Abstract

What role will religion and moral values play in the upcoming and highly contested midterm elections? Will the first Muslim be elected to Congress? How will Catholic politicians fare? What issues - the economy, Iraq, terrorism, immigration - will prove most salient to voters, many of whom think our government needs a change? Our panelists will analyze the results of the elections from both left and right political perspectives once the votes have been counted.
