Part 2 of election year. will comment on the final primary buildup to the party conventions (beginning on July 18th and 25th), and the potential chaos of each as both parties look to be on the brink of fracturing. Additionally, as the performance falls on Bastille Day, the new movement will explore the stark contrast between the democratic ideals of the French Revolution and our questionable democratic processes of the present day.
