It will be held at the Saugatuck Congregational Church from 7 to 8 p.m.

Pegues will discuss his book, “Kompromat: How Russia Undermined American Democracy,” which explores how the Russians hacked the 2016 election. He also investigates the steps taken to shore up election systems in states across the country ahead of the 2018 midterm and 2020 presidential elections.

It will be his second Westport appearance to promote a book in little more than a year. He was here in June 2017 to discuss his book “Black and Blue: Inside the Divide Between the Police and Black America.” (See WestportNow June 26, 2017)
