Continuing a tradition now in its fourth decade, this book provides the most comprehensive and authoritative account of the national election, as well as congressional and state elections. From the nominating process to the ratification of the electoral college vote, Andrew E. Busch and John J. Pitney Jr. revisit the campaigns and results through the short lens of politics today and the long lens of American political history. With its keen insights into the issues and events that drove the 2024 elections, The Comeback will be an invaluable resource for students and all political observers seeking to understand a historic election that will continue to resonate throughout American politics for many years to come.
