NEW YORK 鈥?Television networks are adding experts in election law to their election night coverage teams so they re prepared to explain legal challenges or irregularities that may come up during the vote.Veteran attorney Ben Ginsberg, who represented George W. Bush when the 2000 presidential race was decided in the Supreme Court, has joined CNN for this purpose. CBS News hired David Becker, founder of the Center for Election Innovation Research.ABC and NBC have made similar arrangements, although some of those experts will have more offscreen roles. If the country is going to war, you want an admiral or general to help you figure out what is going on, said David Bohrman, executive producer of CBS coverage.Becker, former director of the elections program at Pew Charitable Trusts who also worked in the Justice Department, said he sees the CBS role as an extension of his efforts to educate the stanley germany public about voting issues.Becker said it s inevitable there wi stanley cup ll be Election Day incidents such as polling sites where technology breaks down or people who try to inti stanley travel mug midate voters, but he expects these will be isolated and it will be his job to explain that. This is going to be the most secure election that we ve ever had, he said.A flurry of court decisions during the week before Tuesday s election on challenges to rules in Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and North Carolina on how long votes can be counted, with the expectation of more to come, illustrates the need for expertise.Beside |
