The 2016 presidential election will be analyzed for years to come as Donald Trump’s success shattered previous historical accepted norms in terms of how to organize a national general election campaign. The conference will analyze the strategic campaign decisions of both the Republicans and Democrats, and external events that had the most significant impact on shaping the outcome of the election.
