Unrigged

Following Ratf**ked, his extraordinary timely and undeniably important (New York Times Book Review) expos of how a small cadre of Republican operatives rigged American elections, David Daley emerged as one of the nations leading authorities on gerrymandering. In Unrigged, he charts a vibrant political movement that is rising in the wake of his and other reporters revelations. With his trademark journalistic rigor and narrative flair, Daley reports on Pennsylvanias dramatic defeat of a gerrymander using the research of ingenious mathematicians and the Michigan millennial who launched a statewide redistricting revolution with a Facebook post. He tells the stories of activist groups that paved the way for 2018s historic blue wave and won crucial battles for voting rights in Florida, Maine, Utah, and nationwide. In an age of polarization, Unrigged offers a vivid portrait of a nation transformed by a new civic awakening, and provides a blueprint for what must be done to keep American democracy afloat.
