On 3 November 2020, Americans will head to the polls and render their verdict on the Donald Trump presidency. Control of the US Congress, state legislatures and governorships are also in play. But the big question is whether the incumbent president can win re-election.
Join us in this webinar to help you navigate and plan your coverage of what will certainly be the second biggest story of the year.

- Sarah Lanningham, Vice President News and Events Eurovision Americas, Inc (EAI), will explain how EAI can help you cover the story.
