The 2024 Election is right around the corner. And no matter if we know who won their elections immediately after Election Day and no matter who those winners are, Americans will have just come off an intense season of political rivalry. Millions of Americans will be celebrating, feeling hopeful about the future. Other millions of Americans will be disappointed–perhaps even feeling scared about their personal future and the future of our nation.
The day after Election Day will be THE moment to talk bridgey. So, how do we talk bridgey?
PACE is excited to release “How to Talk Bridgey” – a guide for Americans that shares lessons for how to use civic terms in a way that the broadest possible audience will connect to it–no matter how different those audiences might be in other respects. It pulls on PACE’s five years of research on Americans’ perceptions of civic language and applies it to a moment we might most need to talk bridgey–the day after Election Day 2024.
Join PACE for the release of this guide on Wednesday, October 16, 2024, where they will share:
- Four lessons for how to talk bridgey
- The civic terms that are inherently bridgey
- An overview of the signals civic terms send
- Space to ask questions from the research experts
