On 19 February 2022 at 1pm Dr. Kate Dommett, University of Sheffield (and her research website here), will join us to discuss her new research: The Business of Elections: A deep dive into election spending returns.

It's a project where Kate and her team looked at election spending returns to gain insight into the role played by different suppliers in election campaigns. It shows some really interesting things about the dynamics of election activity. The research is conducted with Sam Power, Andrew Barclay and Amber MacIntyre. It should give ideas for researchers to think of how to study this in different countries and elections.
