Abstract

American democracy is under profound stress. Increasing polarization and a winner-take-all mentality to politics have led to increased conflict both within the halls of Congress and nationwide. In an era of exceedingly close elections where control of the Presidency, Congress, and state governments can turn on a relative handful of votes, the laws and processes governing democracy have themselves become a battleground.
