Stealing Elections, American Style

David F. Walbert

Political Science / Political Process / Campaigns & Elections

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.

David F.Walbert is Senior Counsel at the law firm Parks, Chesin & Walbert in Atlanta, Georgia, USA. He has unparalleled experience with voting issues. He has handled many kinds of voting cases in a 45-year career that began with his first voting rights case in 1974. He has handled voting cases at every level from trial to arguing landmark cases in the United States Supreme Court. While Walbert has taught constitutional law and voting rights courses, his insights and provocative comments on Supreme Court decisions are not just the opinions of a constitutional law scholar. They are based on decades of real-world experience with legislators, governors, the Justice Department, and voting advocates, as well as with judges on every level, including the Supreme Court.
