    I think if this country - and this includes media - would just read a few books on the 2000 election and be able to talk about it with authority we'd all be much better off right now.

        This election and the election of 2000 are in no way similar. There are no disputed results. It is not nearly as close. There is no split between the popular vote and the electoral college. There was not a massive, singular failure of polling equipment. Stop comparing the two.

        The only remote similarity is that *one* candidate is talking about taking his case to the Supreme Court — something that would be truly shocking if it were to happen, given that all of his current cases are almost literally being laughed at by federal judges right now.

        The more you compare this election to 2000's, which again, you should not do, you give power to the people who are falsely claiming that this election was inherently flawed and did not produce a winner. It was not flawed. It did produce a winner. Focus your energy on that.

        Anyway! A series of books I recommend on voting history, generally! This one is my guiding light in all things. Buy it, read it, highlight it.https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0465005020/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 …

        This book, by @rickhasen, is a wonderful summary of 2000 to now.https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0300182031/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 …

        This book has been required reading for all @electionland employees since 2016. @cstewartiii is also, I'll just add this as a personal note, a completely delightful human being.https://www.amazon.com/American-Elections-Cambridge-Election-Democracy/dp/1107699916/ref=sr_1_5?dchild=1&qid=1605043016&refinements=p_27%3ACharles+Stewart+III&s=books&sr=1-5 …

        I also enjoyed this book by @AriBerman, which is an easy-to-read compendium of modern election foibles.https://www.amazon.com/Give-Us-Ballot-Struggle-America/dp/1250094720/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3PGD9K5RFFJWH&dchild=1&keywords=ari+berman+give+us+the+ballot&qid=1605043077&sprefix=ari+berman%2Caps%2C168&sr=8-1 …

        And this book, by @JoshuaADouglas will make you a bit hopeful. Plus, my name is on the cover 😎 (I get no money from these sales I genuinely endorse this book).https://www.amazon.com/Vote-US-Elections-Change-Future/dp/1633885100/ref=sr_1_2?dchild=1&keywords=joshua+douglas&qid=1605043172&sr=8-2 …

        This book is broader than just voting, but takes an excellent look at the passage of the Voting Rights Act.https://www.amazon.com/Fierce-Urgency-Now-Johnson-Congress/dp/1594204349/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1605043356&sr=8-1 …

        That's all I've got! Happy to take other recommendations to complete the three shelves of voting books I have already.

        Anyway, what I'm saying is that you should not engage with comparisons that are false just because one camp is making those comparisons. You can call them bullshit. Do not linger on the idea that the Supreme Court is going to determine the winner here. The voters already have.

        OH ONE MORE: thx @grace_panetta (who you should also follow) for the reminder. This, by @nedfoley, is *excellent*.https://www.amazon.com/Ballot-Battles-History-Disputed-Elections/dp/0190235276 …
