The Recombobulation Area is presenting another event! This will be with Charles Franklin, director of the Marquette University Law School Poll.
On Wednesday, Aug. 24, The Recombobulation Area’s Dan Shafer, who writes a breakdown of each new Marquette poll — here’s the most recent one, from last week! — will moderate a live interview and discussion with Franklin on the state’s gold standard poll, this year’s midterm elections, and much more. The discussion will also feature John D. Johnson, research fellow at the Marquette Law School’s Lubar Center.
The event will be held at Dandy, an event venue and vintage furniture store located at 5020 W Vliet St. in Milwaukee’s Washington Heights neighborhood.Â
Dandy is located on the corner of W. Vliet St. and 50th Place, across the street from Wick Field park, near stops for the #33 bus route.
Doors will open at 6 p.m., with the live discussion scheduled to begin no later than 6:30 p.m. There will be a cash bar available at the event.Â
The event will be free (FREE!) to attend.
Register to attend on Eventbrite. It really helps our hosts prepare for the audience.
Parents, you are welcome to come with your family. There is plenty of room in the event space and there will be an area designated for kids and parents.
We hope to see you there!
