Billionaires & Ballot Bandits: How to Steal an Election in 9 Easy Steps by Greg Palast
4.0
A good breakdown of all the ways that voter suppression happens in a very... well, personality-driven format. Even if you're not the biggest fan of the gumshoe persona though, it's got a lot of information that will hopefully get you angered enough to be motivated to do something to protect the vote.
And it is still very relevant today, even though it was about the 2012 election - especially since Georgia GOP state reps are already doing all they can to make sure the blue miracle there won't happen again.
Kind of hilariously, there's a comic in there that says "COUNT THE VOTES." I bet Palast didn't predict that THAT would be a weird rallying cry of the Trump era (right before they then started to say "STOP THE COUNT.")
