RIGGED: How the Media, Big Tech, and the Democrats Seized our Elections

November 1, 2021

The biggest question for every conservative American this past year was, “What really happened in the 2020 election?” As the nation dealt with COVID, we saw shifts in policies and laws and many Americans were concerned about the results. We were thrilled to find out Mollie Hemingway was writing a book on this topic. We selected Rigged: How the Media, Big Tech, and the Democrats Seized Our Elections as our November book club choice. Mollie Ziegler Hemingway is one of America’s most influential and trusted political journalists. She is a senior editor of the online magazine, The Federalist, which she helped launch. She is a popular Fox News contributor and a senior journalism fellow at Hillsdale College. She co-authored the national bestseller Justice on Trial: The Kavanaugh Confirmation and the Future of the Supreme Court. In 2021, her distinguished reporting and commentary earned her the prestigious Bradley Prize, awarded for extraordinary contributions to American scholarship and debate, and in 2019, she received The Heritage Foundation’s Salvatori Prize for American Citizenship. Hemingway has been profiled in the New York Times, and her work has appeared in the Wall Street Journal, USA Today, the Los Angeles Times, The Guardian, the Washington Post, the Claremont Review of Books, and Christianity Today.

About the book…

This book is quite possibly the most important book you will read all year long. Not only does it pull back the cover on one of the most contentious election cycles in American history, but she reveals little known elections laws that have been set against conservatives for decades. Hemingway shows that the Left has been combative about election results for years, but only when the situation favors them. They do not aim to have free and fair elections, and she proves this by showing the way Leftist lawyers manipulate challenges to only double check and screen voters that lean Left. This is dishonest and not what Americans want to see. She highlights the impact that non-profits and Big Tech played in manipulating the election results. As technology grows in capacity, it is no longer a simple thing to say ‘one vote per person’. Today, the way Big Tech platforms engage on election material can impact election results. Full stop. This is a serious charge and Hemingway brings proof. She says, “If you believe things went terribly wrong in the 2020 election, well, you’re not crazy, and you’re not alone. But most of all, you’re not wrong.”

In this book, you will find:

  1. How powerful Leftist lawyers reshaped election results in 2020 and in years past
  2. Election laws that have been stacked against conservatives for DECADES
  3. The control and manipulation of Big Tech on our election processes
  4. How COVID was used to change election laws permanently

The conservative movement is way behind when it comes to poll watching and understanding how to ensure free and fair elections. As Americans, we must be confident in our election process so that we can trust the results. Losing faith in elections will undermine our entire system of governance. As young conservative women, or people of any age for that matter, we must engage in the processes that determine our future. This book outlines the problems we face, and shows us how we can overcome the obstacles. This will be a long and arduous path, but it is one we must walk. Rigged is a book that will horrify and inspire you all in one fell swoop. Conservatives believe in the Constitution and the American way of life. If we do not engage, we will lose these important foundation stones of our society. We encourage you to read and share this book today. Future Americans will thank you for your investment!
