{"product_id":"how-to-steal-a-presidential-election","title":"How to Steal a Presidential Election","description":"From two distinguished experts on election law, an alarming look at how the American presidency could be stolen—by entirely legal means\n\n“Their new book asks whether a second Trump attempt to subvert democracy could succeed. Their answer makes for uncomfortable reading.”—Ed Pilkington, The Guardian\n\nEven in the fast and loose world of the Trump White House, the idea that a couple thousand disorganized protestors storming the U.S. Capitol might actually prevent a presidential succession was farfetched. Yet perfectly legal ways of overturning election results actually do exist, and they would allow a political party to install its own candidate in place of the true winner.\n\nLawrence Lessig and Matthew Seligman work through every option available for subverting a presumptively legitimate result—from vice-presidential intervention to election decertification and beyond. While many strategies would never pass constitutional muster, Lessig and Seligman explain how some might. They expose correctable weaknesses in the system, including one that could be corrected only by the Supreme Court.\n\nAny strategy aimed at hacking a presidential election is a threat to democracy. This book is a clarion call to shore up the insecure system for electing the president before American democracy is forever compromised.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0300270798\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.0300270798.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Lessig, Lawrence|Seligman, Matthew\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
