Stealing Elections, American Style

Autor David F. Walbert
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 9 mar 2026
Stealing Elections, American Style tells the captivating history of voter suppression and outright stolen elections in the United States from the country's founding to the battle over voting rights today.

Nearly everyone has an opinion about election integrity and voting, but very few have more than an inkling of the truth about American elections. From stuffed ballot boxes to rigged elections, one of the country's premiere voting rights attorneys, David Walbert, brings unique clarity to these issues by combining fascinating stories about some of the country's most outlandish stolen elections with a clear explanation of how elections are frequently rigged in advance of a single vote being cast. Drawing from his experience litigating election cases, arguing before the Supreme Court, and teaching constitutional law, Walbert explains how Supreme Court decisions since the 1800s have often been the cause of voting inequality. Readers will gain a deep understanding of the voting issues of today-gerrymandering, voter suppression, fraud, voter ID requirements, and voter purges, among others-and what the future portends. They will also learn how we got into the morass we're in and how the future can be better.

Americans have fought for the right to vote for much of our country's history. Today's attacks on voting rights are simply new tactics with the same intent. Stealing Elections, American Style explains exactly what is going wrong today and how we got here. It's a must-read book for anyone interested in protecting free and fair elections.
The right to vote is the hallmark of our democracy-and it is under attack. David Walbert describes in detail the schemes to deprive us of that basic right. Stealing Elections, American Style is a valuable warning to all of us that we must be diligent in protecting the franchise, or we will have no democracy at all.
Stealing Elections, American Style is lively, highly readable, and deeply informed-weaving together landmark historical cases, legal doctrine, and contemporary suppression and gerrymandering tactics with practitioner insight and narrative clarity.
In this era of pervasive misinformation about election integrity and voting, Stealing Elections, American Style shines much-needed light on the truth about voting from the country's founding to the present.
Stealing Elections, American Style is a fact-filled, highly readable explanation of the country's election practices and how they impact voters. It should be required reading for legislators and election board members everywhere.
