Dr. Barry Kay, Political Science Department, Wilfrid Laurier University

“US Electoral Dysfunction 2016”

The United States prides itself as the greatest and most powerful country in the world.  How did Donald Trump and Hilary Clinton wind up as the leading contenders for the Presidency, and what are the implications for Canada?  Dr. Barry Kay is a renowned expert on political affairs and elections, has made numerous well-received presentations at past Confederation Club luncheons, and will bring clarity to this most unusual election.

Dr. Kay received his Bachelor’s degree from McMaster University, a Master’s degree from University of Pennsylvania, and a PhD from the University of Rochester.  Dr. Kay’s research focuses on public opinion and elections, and he has been widely quoted in virtually every significant media outlet in Canada, as well as a number internationally.  In Canada, he developed an election seat projection model, accessible at the lispop.ca website.  In recent elections, he has served as a political consultant and election analyst for CTV, Global Television and CBC.
