The Hidden History of the War on Voting by Thom Hartmann
In today's America, only a slim majority of people register to vote, and a large percentage of registered voters don't bother to show up: Donald Trump was elected by only 26 percent of eligible voters. Unfortunately, this is not a bug in our system, it's a feature. Thom Hartmann unveils the strategies and tactics that conservative elites in this country have used, from the foundation of the Electoral College to the latest voter ID laws, to protect their interests by preventing ''the wrong people''-such as the poor, women, and people of color-from voting while making it more convenient for the wealthy and white. But he also lays out a wide variety of simple, commonsense ways that we the people can fight back and reclaim our right to rule through the ballot box.Thom Hartmann is the nation's premier progressive talk radio personality, heard on over a hundred stations, as well as XM and Sirius radio, and broadcast live on the Free Speech TV network across the country. He has eighteen books to his credit, including Threshold, Screwed, and Cracking the Code.
