UCLA Law faculty on issues in the midterm elections

A candidate’s messaging, charisma and likability may all factor into a voter’s decision on election day. But the rubber hits the road when those candidates get sworn into office and begin to write, pass and block legislation that affects citizens’ everyday lives. Beyond the legislation that elected officials may pass, other issues loom large in the midterms, including election integrity and the evolving role of social media.

Here, UCLA School of Law’s faculty experts share what they’re paying attention to.

As the 2022-23 academic year kicks off, UCLA Law is thrilled to have four new scholars join its faculty.

“UCLA Law has long-hand a vibrant intellectual community with professors dedicated to teaching our students, conducting cutting edge research, and taking seriously our role as a public university” Interim Dean Russell Korobkin explained. “I’m thrilled that our four newest colleagues will help us carry on that tradition.”
