Wednesday, October 30, 5 p.m. ET

Dr. Jeanine Abrams McLean, President at Fair Count, and Kate Gage, Executive Director of the Cooperative Impact Lab, will discuss ways that AI is and can be used to strengthen free and fair elections. They will talk about their work to improve voter representation in the south and their experiments using AI in Mississippi to gather insights from canvassing, refine messaging and resource allocation to improve outreach to voters. We will discuss the potential and limitations of generative AI for progressive organizing and campaigns while fostering new ideas, teams, and community.
