Less than a year out, the 2016 presidential election is already proving to be more disruptive than past elections. Rapidly changing demographics seem to be creating reactions and counterreactions and present the question: which political party can gather the 270 electoral votes necessary to win the presidency? In the report “The Path to 270 in 2016,” American Progress Senior Fellows Ruy Teixeira and John Halpin and Policy Analyst Rob Griffin examine the challenges ahead for both Democrats and Republicans in building an electoral coalition this November.
As the 2016 primary season begins, please join American Progress for an exclusive analysis of the report and a discussion about the way demographic trends may shape the upcoming elections.
