OVERTIME!
and Beyond: The Elections of 2000 and 2001
"Politics
is a Good Thing!" is the slogan of Center for Governmental Studies
founder, Larry J. Sabato. Called "the most quoted college professor
in the land" by the Wall Street Journal, Sabato bridges the gap
between the ivory tower and the real world on issues of critical
importance to American democracy--the challenges facing our political
process. Sabato's presentation will focus on the historic election
of 2000 and his most recent book, OVERTIME! The Election 2000 Thriller,
a collection of never-before-published stories, commentaries, and
interviews by key insiders and frontline witnesses to the 2000 presidential
election. Sabato will also discuss the 2001 Virginia gubernatorial
election, as well as preview the upcoming contests of the 2002 mid-term
elections.
