Check out the lecture available to you on the next Module page.
Then read the Module 7 discussion prompt and respond with your initial post (your answer to my prompt) by 11:59pm on Friday. Two thoughtful follow-ups are due in the Week 7 discussion forum by 11:59pm on Sunday. The discussion board closes after the Sunday deadline so no late posts will be accepted.

By completing this week's reading and assignments, you will achieve the following Course Objective:

Exhibit knowledge of the relationship among political campaigns, voting behavior and elections.

Any general questions should be posted to the Q&A Forum. If you message me a general question, I will tell you to post to the Q&A Forum. By asking a question and receiving an answer (either from me or your classmates) in this forum, you will help other students who have the same question-just like in a face-to-face class!

If you have a personal concern or private matter to discuss now or at any time throughout the semester, you must message me via the Canvas Inbox. The surest way to get a quick response from me regarding a private matter is the Canvas Inbox. I do not check my COD email as frequently as I do Canvas and thus your email will likely get lost among several others. Canvas is also the best way to send secure messages that contain personal/private information.
