Podcast: America Divided – The US Mid-Term Elections

This recording is from “America Divided – The US Mid-Term Elections” which was an hour long webinar by Hugo Gurdon and James Ledbetter held on 2 November 2022, co-hosted and moderated by Strategic Insight Group’s Scott Malcomson.

Some of the areas the talk addressed, were:

  • The likely configuration of the new Congress
  • The main near-term economic implications of the elections
  • Whether it will transform American democracy in the last two years of Biden’s presidential term
  • Whether the relatively bipartisan agreement on China policy will hold
  • Will both parties continue their late-boomer trajectories, or will younger politicians emerge after the midterms?
