The Global Election Year

2024 was not only a presidential election year in the United States, but in many countries around the world—over 60 countries representing nearly half the world’s population had national elections. With those elections comes the potential for major global shifts. We will focus on elections in three countries: Mexico, Taiwan, and South Africa.
