Beschreibung

From Pandemic to Insurrection: Voting in the 2020 US Presidential Election describes voting in the 2020 election, from the presidential nomination to new voting laws post-election. Election officials and voters navigated the challenging pandemic to hold the highest turnout election since 1900. President Donald Trump's refusal to acknowledge the pandemic's severity coupled with frequent vote fraud accusations affected how states provided safe voting, how voters cast ballots, how lawyers fought legal battles, and ultimately led to an unsuccessful insurrection.

Rezensionen

"Michael McDonald's From Pandemic to Insurrection offers a readable, no-nonsense look at how the 2020 US presidential election was run, and a debunking of the 'Big Lie' that nefarious forces stole the election from Donald Trump. A meticulous and well-documented separation of fact from fiction."

Richard L. Hasen, author of Cheap Speech: How Disinformation Poisons Our Politics - and How to Cure It
