Disproven : my unbiased search for voter fraud for the Trump campaign, the data that shows why he lost, and how we can improve our elections / Ken Block.
"Many searched for evidence of voter fraud in 2020, only a few were unbiased professionals...and only one has written a book about his experience. If you value the integrity of our elections--or want a behind-the-scenes look at an attempt at overturning one--Disproven by Ken Block takes you out of the voting booth and into the chaos that was the attempt to challenge the results of the 2020 U.S. presidential election. In November 2020, data specialist Ken Block received a phone call from the Trump Campaign. They wanted to hire him to find evidence of election fraud. What followed were late night and early morning requests to assess fraud claims at a blistering pace and ultimately find definitive evidence about the role voter fraud played in the outcome of the 2020 presidential election. Multiple subpoenas later, Block reveals the truth about being one of the few professionals hired to prove the Trump Campaign's allegation that voter fraud cost Donald Trump the 2020 presidential election. He explains what the voter data tells us and exposes the sobering truth that our federal elections are operating on hundreds, if not thousands, of disparate voting systems prone to error--a threat to national election integrity. Disproven is an insider's look at the results of an inflammatory claim, a flawed system, and the changes drastically needed before the results of another election are threatened or contested"-- Jacket flap.
