About this listen
When a seven-million-vote margin of victory and 306 electoral votes pointed to Joe Biden as the victor in the 2020 Presidential Election, Trump-fueled conspiracy theories exploded.
In The Big Truth, CBS's Chief Washington Correspondent Major Garrett and the nation's foremost elections expert David Becker completely upend The Big Lie that has infected the Far Right with firsthand stories of election officials like Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger and Bucks County, Pennsylvania, election director Thomas Freitag. And they reveal the concrete evidence proving that 2020 may have been the most secure US election ever.
But Garrett and Becker go beyond the key players from all six swing states, the pre-election litigation that clarified the rules for both parties, and the fully auditable and verifiable ballots used. They lay bare the methods being undertaken right now to undercut faith, belief, and effectiveness of elections, identifying the places where the most dire actions have been taken since 2020—where election laws have been changed, or election officials been hounded out of office, retired out of frustration/fatigue, or been replaced by pro-Trump political figures.

Truly informative
I am Australian but this book fascinated me because of the lengths the authors went to to explain the excellence of a functioning electoral system and the dangers they now face because doubt has been sewn. Fascinating.

this narrator is really hard to listen too.
I'm not sure if it's the person directing the narrator or the narrator himself. but it sounds like he is struggling to read the content. putting comas in the wring place. paused in places he should not for what appears to be dramatic effect. I irony is I really loved the content but nearly didn't finish listening to it because the voice actor used was as pleasant as nails down a blackboard
