This multimedia course explores the political campaigns of this election cycle, including the Presidential election, the battle for California state and local offices, and the pivotal fight to control the House and the Senate. Each class will focus on one or more anchor campaigns as well as a review of the leading campaign issues, news since the last class and what is upcoming in the week ahead. Local, state and national campaigns will be highlighted, including California’s ballot measures. The substance as well as style of campaigns will be addressed, including a healthy dose of fact checking. You don’t have to be a political junkie to enjoy this course; however, you may become one because of your participation. The course features a website with supplementary materials and class notes: www.tinyurl.com/shtr2018 .
