Dec 4, 2024 | georgetownvoice.com | Alex Cohen |Aubrey Butterfield |Natalie Chaudhuri |Connor Martin

Brandon Finnigan watched the 2004 election from his college dorm room. He was unhappy that results came in slowly and viewers only had access to one source for election data. “I thought, ‘Maybe there is an alternative way for election information and data to be available in the United States,’” Finnigan said.

Aug 14, 2024 | spectrumnews1.com | Alex Cohen

EL SEGUNDO, Calif. — Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis. Federal Judge Tanya Chutkan. New York Attorney General Letitia James. Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson. They’re all Black women who have posed challenges to former President Donald Trump. And now, of course, he faces Vice President Kamala Harris in his quest to reclaim the White House.
