Bainbridge Island educators to lead a panel discussion on “Electing a President: Process and History” Jan. 10 at Bainbridge Island Museum of Art

Bainbridge Island, Wash – Bainbridge Island Rotary and the Passionate About Learning Society (PALS) will host a non-partisan panel discussion led by Bainbridge Island educators Amanda Ward and Larry Judd on the history and evolution of the United States presidential electoral process.  Part of the ongoing Rotary and PALS 2011-2012 Lecture Series, this event will be held from 7- 8:30 p.m., Tuesday, Jan 10 at the Bainbridge Island Museum of Art, 554 Winslow Way, Bainbridge Island.

Our process of electing a president of the United States has undergone a series of constitutional and legal changes since the inception of our nation.  This panel discussion is an opportunity to revisit the presidential election process and review the changes that have taken place over the years leading up to this year’s presidential election.  Rotary and PALS invite everyone in the community to join the discussion.  The event is free.
