This morning Edelman hosted a round table breakfast to discuss next month’s US Election. As the day creeps closer, the polls are changing daily and it is becoming more apparent that the result could be closer than ever.

Chaired by Stefan Stern, Edelman’s director of strategy, guests at the breakfast pondered and debated the campaigns so far, key issues and potential outcomes. Joining Stefan as key speakers were Sir Christopher Meyer, KCMG and former British Ambassador to the USA; Steve Schmidt, former John McCain strategist and VC Public Affairs, Edelman US; and, Jonathan Freedland, columnist, The Guardian.

The video below summarises the key thoughts from the breakfast as well as winner predictions from Sir Christopher Mayer, Steve Schmidt, Jonathan Freedland and Cindy Miller, managing director, UPS UK, Ireland & Nordics District.
