Description

Today we answer this listener question: “It has happened before that in very close elections, the Supreme Court chose the winner. How does that happen?”

Our guest is Dan Cassino, Professor of Government and Politics at Fairleigh Dickinson University. He walks us through the two times the Supreme Court or its justices were directly involved with choosing a winner of the presidency.
