This online presentation will share brand new data freshly collected from a new poll of likely voters in key battleground states. The disability community, which includes more than 56 million Americans and accounted for 18 million voters in 2018, could be a decisive factor in determining who wins the White House and other key races in November.
As such, reporters and political operatives need to know: What issues matter most to voters with disabilities? How can campaigns get their message across to these voters? Are people with disabilities energized and engaged with one party or another? How is the coronavirus outbreak affecting the disability community, a high-risk group? This online news conference - with time for Q&A - will answer these and other crucial questions.
Date: March 19, 2020
Time: 12 p.m. ET / 9 a.m. PT
Speakers:
Hon. Steve Bartlett, Chairman, RespectAbility
Stan Greenberg, CEO, Greenberg Quinlan Rosner Research (GQRR)
Jennifer Laszlo Mizrahi, President and CEO, RespectAbility
