Offered through Osher Lifelong Learning Institute

With the 2024 presidential election on the horizon and with the 2020 election still in our rearview mirror, it may be surprising to learn that we’ve been through all this before! In the presidential election of 1876, there were voting fraud claims and chaos in the electoral college. Congress eventually chose the president, Rutherford B. Hayes, who was secretly sworn in to avoid a possible overthrow of the government. It’s the perfect time to reflect on a similar yet often forgotten period in our nation’s history.

Presented by Tom Borcher, a retired trial attorney and White House historian.
